Do not wait for an insecure SMS authentication code to arrive on your phone!

2! Authenticator is a web browser extension that allows you to instantly see two-factor authentication codes (TOTP based) for login use on many major websites and apps.

Hard at work on your desktop or laptop computer? Now your two-factor codes are just a click away in your browser! It is designed to be compatible with the other Authenticator © apps, and its use is similar.

Easy to Use
Add your two-factor codes by copying and pasting a QR Code image, drag-n-drop a QR code image, scanning a code with your webcam, or manually entering a two-factor key. Now your specific, time based, two-factor code for your online account is just a single click away.

The extension is built with security and privacy in mind. Data is never shared with any other entities and a network connection is not required for the use of this extension, with the exception of registering for and the validating of paid features.
