Description

Microsoft Authenticator is a convenient and secure app that allows you to sign in to your online accounts using multi-factor authentication, passwordless, or password autofill. With multi-factor authentication, you enter your password and then provide an additional way to prove your identity, such as approving a notification or entering a one-time password generated by the app. The app supports various accounts, including non-Microsoft accounts like Facebook, Amazon, Dropbox, and more. Passwordless authentication is another feature offered by Microsoft Authenticator. Instead of using a password, you can use your phone to log in to your Microsoft account. After entering your username, you simply approve the notification sent to your phone and use your fingerprint, face ID, or PIN for added security. This two-step verification process grants you access to Microsoft products and services. Additionally, Microsoft Authenticator can autofill passwords for you. By signing in with your personal Microsoft account, you can sync and autofill passwords saved in the app. This feature is protected by multi-factor authentication, requiring your fingerprint, face ID, or PIN for access. You can also import passwords from other password managers like Google Chrome. For work or school accounts, Microsoft Authenticator allows you to register your device and add your organization's account. This enables seamless and secure access to files, emails, and apps without the need to log in multiple times. The app also supports cert-based authentication, which verifies that the sign-in request is coming from a trusted device. Please note that Microsoft Authenticator may request optional access permissions, such as accessibility service, location, camera, and read access to your storage. These permissions are only required for specific features, and you can still use the app for services that do not require them.

Garbage. If your company decides to use this, best of luck. And if you get a new phone, I wish you even more luck, because that is absolute hell, trying to get the authenticator to recognize your new phone. There have got to be better ways to secure digital things than this damned app. Also, you won't be able to use it if you lose reception or don't have Wi-Fi, which is a common occurrence in our very large building.

Works w/every app/site I've linked it to (everything from banking to shopping) & never had a failure. I've been using it for many years now. U can use it w/both your personal email addresses (Gmail, yahoo, etc), & SSO accounts (organization), & across devices. 99% of complaints here are USER error! Don't blame MS because u don't understand how to use this app. & no, it is NOT supposed to sync w/Google PW Manager, for your protection! However, u CAN upload a copy of your passwords to this app.

I was forced to install this app. My work email literally wouldn't open until I did. I did not elect to participate in the use of a two-factor authentication system that, based on the reviews available on the website, will inevitably lock me out when I get a new phone, will subject me to endless code loops, and will offer no customer support. Between this and the disabling of Office features if you opt out of AI, Microsoft is no longer a company; they are an ongoing hostage negotiation.
