authentication app

Code-generating security tool

An authentication app generates temporary codes used to verify identity when logging into accounts, adding a security layer beyond passwords.

The app produces a new code every thirty seconds, synchronized with the service you're accessing.

I couldn't log in because I'd deleted my authentication app without transferring my accounts first.
