So Google has locked people into their Google Authenticator mobile apps. You no longer have the option to transfer accounts (saving as JSON or text). You can export and import to another Google Authenticator via QRCodes, but not to another application. After some interweb searches, there are some CLI tools to read, decode and present in text the secret code to import, one by one, the QRCodes that Google Authenticator generates for exports. That’s very inconvenient when you have plenty of accounts. Is there any other way than the manual way? #Bitwarden Authenticator could support these locked down QRCodes? Maybe time for a PR to add support to import from Google Authenticator…
