[QUOTE="I Walk MY Way, post: 1032889, member: 8562"] long story short My phone an Android 12 got hacked I used two apps for f2a authentication for website's and forums ect 1 was google authenticator and the other was Avira password manager As a result of the hack I did a factory reset, after the reset with everything updated I discovered that the google authenticator app was empty no authentication codes. When I tried Avira the authentication codes were all accounted for so My guess is they were backed up to Avira cloud system. So my question is why dose google authenticator not backup its own codes?
