Add an option button to export the file locally! So easy. These auto-export options don't always work with every browser and make the app useless.
Not at all user friendly
I don't understand why most people are giving bad/low reviews. It works well for me.
Not user friendly
Not user friendly. I would NOT recommend.
Very Nice
Very simplistic, does the job right, no distractions. 5/5
one star barely, no matter what i do i cant get the Authenticator to work,. very frustrating
An essential tool in my online toolkit. Speeds up my work considerably! Thank you for this very simple and useful extension.
Just like last year, I am so confused I am just going to forget about logging in. I finally found codes but by that time the screen that asked for the codes was gone. It initially asked for backup codes out of the blue. I don't have backup codes. Where am I supposed to get them. When I last worked I was Information Systems Support so you would think this would be a breeze. Two years in a row I am giving up. I have no clue. I am just terribly confused about what I am supposed to do but I do have a new password. As if that would help.
I don't know what happened, but I can't download the backup file anymore. Any idea of what to do?
They entries do not have a name. So if you have multiple with the same username. They all look the same and can't tell the difference between them. Thus completely not usable for me.
SUPER easy to set up and use. Saves me so much time while I'm at work.
Amazing!! Saves time while you are in desktop
I love this extension and use it every day. It's an amazing time-saver when it comes to using my Google Authenticator codes quickly and conveniently without having to leave Chrome.
