GitHub is slowly rolling in 2FA. Any good open source apps that will enable me to activate 2FA token on android? - eviltoast

If proprietary app is better and more robust I am willing to try it and assess it myself.

    andOTP is the only app I know of that’s on F-Droid and has a feature to make an encrypted backup to a file.

    Unfortunately it hasn’t been updated in awhilee, but I dont think there’s an alternative.

      I see aegis supports automatic backups. I don’t see it explicitly saying ‘encrypted’ backups though I too use andOTP but didn’t realize it’s not regularly maintained. I may check out aegis as it does support import from andOTP

        Followup. Aegis does support encrypted backup. I had to do an unencrypted backup in andOTP so Aegis could import. Easy stuff

        Edit: automatic backup doesn’t encrypt? Or I am having trouble setting up

          automatic backup doesn’t encrypt?

          It does for me. Are you sure that your backup really isn’t encrypted? Look in the JSON backup file, all your vault data should be encrypted and stored in one single long base64 encoded string with key name “db”. Is that not so for you?

          I had to do an unencrypted backup in andOTP so Aegis could import.

          I just did an en encrypted backup from andOTP to the local filesystem and successfully imported it in Aegis. It worked flawlessly. Just in case someone else is reading this and is hesitant about how to migrate from andOTP to Aegis.
