Have a bunch of one-time code generators in Google Authenticator and want to move them to the new Passwords app?

Google Authenticator has an export feature that’ll export 10 generators at a time to a QR code: 🍔 > Transfer accounts > Export > Next

To open that QR code in Apple Passwords on the same device, screenshot it, open it in Photos, and tap and hold on the QR code.

Passwords will then let you associate each of the generators you exported with a password you have saved.

hypothesis:

a persons expertise in any given topic is inversely proportionate to the amount of times they say 'bro' in the course of 60 seconds

Keep Safe Using Mobile Tech is my latest book! Noticing a trend in mobile devices offering tools for personal safety (like Android’s Safety Check and Apple's iOS Check In), I collected all related features for iPhone & Android and Apple Watch & Wear OS watches into this title.

It helps you block abusive messages, track and recover your devices, coordinate with a safety partner, discover stalkers using trackers, monitor your heart, and call for help automatically.

#cybersecurity zealots often shame humans for writing down their passwords, but as someone who just had to excavate the digital remains of a loved one who died suddenly:

*please* write down your credentials somewhere a trusted human can find them, especially your phone passcode and any primary passwords (like for email accounts, password manager, etc.)

the humans who care about you will need that access for many reasons; a "badass" threat model will only add helplessness to their grief
