2FA

Is there a reliable alternative to 2FA for iphone11? Google Authenticator seems to do a good job of advertising itself, but I am wary of google at the best of times.

iPhone 11, iOS 14

Google Authenticator I’ve been using Google Authenticator for 2FA on my IOS devices. Is there a comparable app for macOS? Hard to believe I know, but I don’t always have my phone with me. Having to retrieve my phone when using my Macs is a nuisance.

You can set up 2fa to use multiple trusted devices, multiple phone numbers, etc.

There is no 3rd party 'authenticator' that can be used for Apple ID 2FA.
