Question 1

Is this authenticator safe to use?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Everything runs in your browser. The secret key you enter is processed locally and never sent over the network. There is no backend, no analytics, and no tracking.

Question 2

What if I lose my secret key?

Accepted Answer

Your secret key is the master code. Without it, you can't regenerate valid codes. Most services provide backup codes or recovery options during 2FA setup — save those in a secure location.

Question 3

Why don't my codes work?

Accepted Answer

Make sure your device's clock is accurate. TOTP codes are time-based, so a wrong clock means wrong codes. Most services allow a 30-second drift before rejecting codes.
