Overview

Aegis Authenticator is a secure, open-source 2FA app for Android. It generates the one-time codes your online accounts ask for, and adds things many authenticator apps lack, such as proper encryption and backups. It supports HOTP and TOTP, so it works with thousands of services.

What it does well

Aegis encrypts its vault with AES-256-GCM, unlocked with a password or biometrics. It blocks screen capture and can hide codes until you tap them. You add entries by scanning a QR code or importing from Google Authenticator, Authy, Microsoft Authenticator and other apps, then group, sort and search them. The vault can be exported, plain or encrypted, and backed up automatically to a location you choose. Its security design is documented in detail.

Why it’s in the collection

Aegis is the authenticator many privacy-minded Android users recommend, because your codes stay encrypted and backed up under your control. It's GPL-licensed.
