Google Authenticator App Reviews

No app security

This app seriously doesn’t allow users to set a password or have Touch/Face ID? Poor design and interface on top of it all.

Not working

When i try to use the code to sign into my acocunt that requires the authentification code, i get a mesaage that says google authentication code is invalid. Troubleshooted it and still says the same thing.

Authy fanboy

Use Authy instead.

Unclear

Not clear to use at all.

Need thumb/passcode support

Its counter to what the authenticator stands for to make it so easy to open.

Worst Authenticator

Honestly such a pain in the *** to reset the Authenticator, I felt like such a circus monkey trying to reset it, screw google

Better that a RSA key fob.

I love this app. I just wish it was accepted by more websites. I always have my within reach. This beats digging for my keys. Plus there’s no device that expires. And it’s a few simple steps to register the app to a new phone

Doesn’t work

Suddenly, the codes don’t work. It gives me a number but when I enter it, it says, “Wrong code” every time. Useless.

Not a Unique App

Installing this app overwrites the MS app. Was this intentional?

Big problem transferring to new iPhone iOS11.x

New iPhoneX unlocked. Backed up my older phone on iTunes and then started the process of restoring the data to the new phone. Google Authenticator. The app refused to install. Warning error [ Unable To Install “Google Authenticator GA” . The app is no longer available in the App Store”. This is actually not true, the app is still available in the App Store. - Ran the latest iOS11.2.2 on the iPhoneX. I wiped the iPhoneX to a factory reset - Ran all app updates on the iPhone6S for all apps. - Ran the latest iOS11.2.2 on the iPhone6S - Did a backup on iTunes twice for iPhone6S - Then did a restore on the iPhoneX . Same problem not able to use “GA”after all that. If I delete “GA” on my iPhoneX and reinstall from the cloud on new phone it opens, but lost all my 2FA sites. This is awful. This is essential for my work security and personal banking. Feature request. Please allow groups so I can sort out 2FA sites by personal , work, banking. Using GA so often that the list becomes too long

Needs update for X

iPhone X!!!

Doesn’t work!!

This app is garbage. Codes don’t work even though they are entered within the time. There is no settings option as some people have suggested to check out. So frustrating!! Please fix this app!

At your on risk

Since you can’t back it up, your codes if you loose them will be ether lost or very hard to recover, can’t believe google forgot to add back up function

Touch ID

Please add Touch ID and the ability to backup/transfer codes to a new device ...

Wow

locked me out of my stocks when I got a new phone. And won’t sync with my new phone. I wouldn’t download this app is over ratted and not worth it 100% stay away they don’t help you get your stuff back either they kinda sit back and laugh T you thanks a lot google. Wouldnt download this app again if I had a trillion dollar invest somewhere

Shouldn’t a security app have the latest security?

Wake up google. Implement Touch ID and Face ID as well as as making this app iPhone X supported. I am off to Microsoft Authenticator for now...they update all the time and had iPhone X support on day 1. But I prefer to use google’s suite of apps...I am just losing TRUST.

Terrible UI Caused Me To Delete All My Accounts

The UI for this app is so poor that multiple numerical codes were being generated for each account I had associated with it. I tried deleting all of the codes and assumed new codes would re-generate when I used a service with Google Authenticator again, but instead I have to manually verify my identity for each account now. It’s pathetic that Google has so many resources and builds such an atrocious app compared to Authy. If at all possible use Authy instead of this.

Apple Watch support

I wish you’d add Apple Watch support.

You have a serious bug

I use iPhone se . when the token changes screen doesnt refresh . It still shows old token . I have close and open the app again to let it show the new token

Please update for iPhone X

No notch support, no Face ID support
