2 Factor authenticator app question

I guess I have to look into using a 2FA app at last so...

I am probably late to the party on this, having resisted both Microsoft and Google's offerings up to now. I guess I'm just suspicious of these companies we used to love in the early days.

I've looked at the PCMag review and it seems that their top choice - 2FAS - might fit my requirements. I use both Android (mobile) and Microsoft (laptop, desktop) OS.

Has anyone any experience with this app? Any thoughts on it that might be helpful? Use on Windows and/or Android?

Or are there any better ideas?

Cheers!

@elliek I don't know that one but have been using Aegis for a long ish time and it's been fine if you want another option. I am no expert though!

Thanks, Nigel! It is in the review and up there near the top. Does it work with Windows?

@elliek ah, didn't think to check. Seems only for Android, sorry!

I do have Android, but only on the phone.
