Authenticator

Authenticator: your two-factor codes, in the tab you are already in Stop reaching for your phone every time you sign in. Unlock it, find the app, scroll to the right account, read six digits, type them before they expire — that is fifteen seconds, several times a day, for something your browser can do in one click. Authenticator generates the same codes, from the same TOTP standard — the ones you have in Google Authenticator today — right where you are logging in. Free to use, with an optional Pro plan, and no account to sign up for. ⚡ YOUR 2FA CODES WITHOUT PICKING UP YOUR PHONE 🚀 Click the Authenticator icon in the toolbar and every 2FA code is there 🚀 One more click copies the one-time password — paste it and you are in 🚀 Or let it type the code for you: press Ctrl+Shift+Y (Cmd+Shift+Y on a Mac), or right-click the code field, and the code goes straight into the page 🚀 The account for the site you are on is suggested first, so you are not hunting through a list 🚀 Search as you type, even with a hundred 2FA accounts 🚀 A timer on each verification code shows how long it has left, so you never paste one that is about to expire 🚀 Your 2FA codes work offline — on a plane, on the underground, on a laptop with no signal 📲 BRING EVERY 2FA ACCOUNT OVER IN ONE SCAN 🔄 Moving from Google Authenticator? Open it on your phone → menu → Transfer accounts → Export accounts 🔄 Pick the accounts and it shows a single QR code holding all of them 🔄 Scan it with your webcam, or upload a photo of it — the whole list crosses over to Authenticator at once 🔄 Names, issuers, digits and periods come with them; nothing to retype 🔄 Your phone keeps its copy, so nothing is lost and you can run both while you decide 🌍 The same works for any other authenticator app with a standard TOTP QR code, and for a list of otpauth:// links or a backup file 🔐 OPTIONAL PASSWORD PROTECTION FOR YOUR 2FA CODES 🔒 Off by default — turn it on in Settings whenever you want 🔒 Your codes are then encrypted on your device with AES-256-GCM, behind 600,000 PBKDF2 iterations 🔒 Turning it on removes every readable copy of your 2FA data: local storage, sync, and all seven automatic backups 🔒 A recovery code means a forgotten password never costs you your accounts 🔒 Choose when Authenticator asks for it: every time, after a few idle minutes, after an hour, or once per browser session 🛡️ WHY AUTHENTICATOR IS SAFE TO TRUST ✅ Manifest V3, with five Chrome permissions: storage, activeTab, contextMenus, scripting and sidePanel — and no host permissions ✅ No declared content scripts: nothing of this extension runs on a page until you ask it to insert a code there ✅ No ads, no sign-up, and no tracking of the sites you visit ✅ Your 2FA secrets and codes are generated and kept on your machine — there is no account to create, and our server never sees them ✅ Free to use. An optional Pro plan removes the limit on how many accounts a new installation can add — every account you already have keeps working either way 🎨 BUILT FOR EVERYDAY 2FA USE 🔑 Groups keep a long 2FA list navigable — filter by the labels above it 🔑 Rename any account, or set its issuer, so a cryptic label from a QR code becomes something you recognise 🔑 Drag to reorder, so your most-used accounts sit at the top, or sort by service or by name 🔑 Compact and hidden view modes when you want more on screen or fewer codes on display 🔑 Open Authenticator as a popup, a floating window or in the side panel 🔑 Three window sizes, a light and a dark theme 🔑 20 languages ⏰ 2FA CODE REJECTED? IT IS ALMOST ALWAYS YOUR CLOCK 🕒 Time-based 2FA codes fail when your computer's clock drifts more than about 30 seconds 🕒 Authenticator checks, tells you, and corrects for the difference so your codes keep working while you fix it 🕒 The same drift breaks Google Authenticator on a phone for exactly the same reason, so setting the clock right fixes both ➕ ADDING 2FA ACCOUNTS 📷 Scan a QR code with your camera 📷 Upload a screenshot, or capture one straight from your screen ⌨️ Or type the secret key by hand, for services that never show a QR code 🌍 Works with your bank, your email, your work login — anything issuing standard TOTP ⚙️ Unusual setups are covered: SHA-1, SHA-256 and SHA-512, six or eight digit OTP, and a refresh interval other than the usual 30 seconds 💾 2FA BACKUPS, EXPORT AND SYNC 📦 Automatic local backups of your 2FA accounts, the last seven kept, with a one-click restore 📦 Export to a file — plain, or encrypted with a password you choose 📦 The same file imports back into Authenticator, or into anything else that reads the format — the openness that let you leave your old app works in both directions 📦 Optional 2FA sync across your Chrome browsers through your own Google account. Switch it off and it is removed from Google's servers, not merely stopped ☁️ With Pro, an encrypted cloud backup: your accounts are encrypted on your device with a recovery code only you hold before anything is uploaded, so the copy we keep is one we cannot read 🌐 ABOUT THE NETWORK Your 2FA secrets, account names and codes never leave your device unencrypted, and neither do the sites you use them on. Once a day Authenticator checks in with our server, sending an anonymous installation id, its version and language, how many accounts it holds — never which ones — and a few settings and billing events; this is what the free plan and Pro run on. When you open it, it also checks your clock against a public time API and caches the result. The Pro checkout on Stripe opens in an ordinary browser tab. ❓ COMMON QUESTIONS ABOUT AUTHENTICATOR Is this made by Google? No. Authenticator is an independent product with no affiliation to Google. Why not just use the phone app? Authenticator runs where you actually sign in. Google Authenticator has no desktop version, so every sign-in on a computer means picking up your phone. The codes here are identical — same TOTP standard, same six digits — and they are already in front of you. Can I…
