Bitwarden has launched a new authenticator app
Storing 2FA codes is just the beginning. Bitwarden aims to add defense in depth to authentication.
Bitwarden Authenticator is a standalone app that is available for everyone, even non-Bitwarden customers.
In its current release, Bitwarden Authenticator generates time-based one-time passwords (TOTP) for users who want to add an extra layer of 2FA security to their logins.
There is a comprehensive roadmap planned with additional functionality.
Available for iOS and Android

After Authy scrapped its support for the desktop client, I’m looking for an alternative. Sadly, this does not look like it.
Sadly, this does not look like it.
Why?
I do not see a desktop client.
Ah. I only use a phone app, but I see the problem.
Ente.io is working on a desktop app. Whilst its experimental, you can get it from the releases page on their github
I use Authenticator on Linux. I'm not sure what OS you use, but perhaps there's another, TOTP is a pretty easy protocol to implement (it's basically just a hash of a key and timestamp).
I would like an app for desktop and phone/tablet that are syncing, just like Authy did, before they abandoned the desktop app.
So, for me that means: iOS/iPadOS and macOS
I'm in the same boat. I'm a paid Bitwarden user but I'd like to keep 2fa and passwords separated.
If no alternative soon, i'll just bite the bullet and put everything in bitwarden (except itself, ofc)
