With a user-friendly experience, simple set-up, and convenient push notifications, LastPass Authenticator is an ideal option for you to boost your security."

Features

  • Generates 6-digit codes every 30 seconds
  • Push notifications for one-tap approval
  • Support for SMS codes
  • Automated set-up via QR code
  • Support for LastPass accounts
  • Support for other TOTP-compatible services and apps (including any that support Google Authenticator)

The Push Notifications are similar to Microsoft Account Authenticator, it's a one-tap process to allow device access.


Enjoy! :D

Was looking at this an hour ago. Seems you need to make an account with LogMeIn to use this. I'll pass. I should not have to do that (unless I can use my LastPass account... I do understand LogMeIn owns LastPass). As for the app itself, seems to have a rocky start. Not many people seem to like it. Well at least on Google Play.

Have anyone tried LastPass Authenticator yet? So far anyone experience any issues on it yet?

Recently, am trying back on Password Manager. So, trying out Lastpass again?
