What’s your prefer two-factor authentication app for iOS?

I’m looking for an app that offers the best combination of platform compatibility (preferably available on Mac OS, iPad OS, and iOS), security, usability, and reliability.

It would be great if the app is open source and has a backup feature as well.

I came across a recent Wirecutter article from The New York Timesthat recommends Cisco DUO Mobile as the top choice, followed by Authy and Google Authenticator.

I would greatly appreciate your insights and security perspectives.

Thank you

    That’s if you’ve gone through the steps of setting up 2FA for 1Password as well, and at that point you either need another app or access to a text

      I do have an app set up just for 1Password 2fa. Also, when you sign into a new device with 1Password you need:

      The password 2fa code Additional “Secret Key” that is account specific that you can only get by logging into 1Password from a trusted device and “adding new device”

      At that point, if they get in, they either really want my info or I’m being held at gunpoint.
