I just found this out and I'm freaking the fuck out because my phone is 2+ years old and feels like it's starting to show signs of failure soon. What the hell are you supposed to do? Choose between having your accounts at risk, and buying a new phone every year like clockwork? Do I need to print out backup codes for every single account I'm using 2-step authentication on? --- http://poorcouplesfoodguide.com Agender, curry fan, Top 10 lister, indie dev, gym hitter, musician, et al. ...

Yeah its pretty annoying, if you swap phones a few times within a few years then you realize you can't login in to something because of its tied to another device and you don't remember which one it was and god forbid you sold the device before hand. --- This is a signature to draw attention away from the fact that I don't have a signature. ...

Sometimes it makes sense to keep a cheap back-up phone. I have a Nord N100 set up, just in case something happens and I have to wait on insurance to provide a replacement for the Google Pixel 6. I also have authy (my backup code generator) on as many devices as possible, tablets, browsers etc. --- http://www.last.fm/user/walkingishonest ... Copied to Clipboard!

If you do remember to swap it you can generate a QR code to easily swap everything over. If you forgot and you got rid of your old phone like me then you have to wait until you sign in and get prompted for 2fa, realize you don't have it, then go through the hassle of removing 2fa, and then re-adding it on your new phone. --- http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/852-nofunallowed https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b39VhSOxRcE ...

Turtlemayor333 posted... I just looked at this and there's an export button. Right, but if your current phone is stolen or broken, you can't use access that export option. Basically, you need to know when you're getting a new phone, to transfer the codes. Otherwise you have to rely on the backup codes provided to you by your various accounts to login to said accounts, and then set up new codes in the Google Authenticator app. --- http://poorcouplesfoodguide.com Agender, curry fan, Top 10 lister, indie dev, gym hitter, musician, et al. ...
