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!

    Authenticator allows you to back up your passcodes to to your google account. I actually prefer DUO’s way of backing up 2FA codes by protecting them with a different password. I don’t like google’s approach as it basically means that if your google account is compromised then the attackers have the keys to the castle.
