Raivo OTP is sold.
“Big News! 🚀 Exciting times ahead as we announce that Raivo has been acquired by Mobime (mobime.org)! 🎉🤝
Rest assured, nothing will change for you, except for more support and development on the Raivo ecosystem. More updates will follow soon.”
I was actually looking to switch to Raivo from 2FAS Auth. Now I’m going to be taking my time. 😬
Curious why you were planning to switch from 2FAS. Currently on Raivo and was wondering if 2FAS is just as good
I was interested in trying out Raivo and I thought I read a post not recommending 2FAS either here or before on Reddit.
I think it was on reddit if you search by 2FAS Auth there’s a thread and someone mentions this:
OTP Auth would be a good alternative.
For me both (Raivo and OTP Auth) are trustworthy.
2FAS I wouldn’t use. Quote from their privacy policy:
In accordance with the terms and conditions of our Terms of Service, we collect and store the following Personal Information about our Users: Device ID (including brand, model, unique ID, operating system info, and storage state) Email address (for Users of 2FAS API, 2FAS Plugin, and 2FAS Vault Services) Phone number, if provided by you Cookies and analytics
Also does 2FAS have the ability to export the codes to a different app as I couldn’t find it before?
LOL I was going to switch to Raivo from Authy until I heard this, and then after some research settled on 2fas. Is it no good, or just doesn’t fit your use??? Now I’m hesitant again!
@Jarmer @Milarepa_07
I, too, settled on 2FAS a while back, primarily because I don't like this type of thing being hosted online at the mercy of someone else.
I am using Aegis (free and OpenSource) on Android and I am pretty happy with it, but they don’t have iOS version.
Rest assured, nothing will change for you
If I had a dollar for every time I’ve read that, only to have everything change 6-12 months later, I’d be rich.
What would be a good alternative for iOS ?? With the ability to export keys?
I’m wondering this as well. I’d love to get off of Authy.
Christ, you cannot just post something like that and leave it at “More updates will follow soon.”
Raivo was never free software anyway: github.com/raivo-otp/…/LICENSE.md
Modification, duplication, and (re)distribution of the Services in binary or published format (“Processed Format”) for any purposes and/or reasons is strictly prohibited without the explicit permission from Raivo OTP. Permission for modification, duplication, and (re)distribution of the “Service” in Processed Format can be requested via GitHub.
Well RIP heard tofu authenticator was good if anyone is jumping ship. I’m only on android so I havent tried it though
so I’m not sure if youre able to export your seeds
You aren’t. It’s a nice enough app, though. If you want to export the seeds, there’s this app: github.com/mattrubin/Authenticator
Damn hope tofu adds that feature but I doubt it. That looks kinda dead judging from the releases unfortunately or is it one of those “if aint broke, dont fix it” projects like veracrypt.

Does anyone know anything about Mobile? Their website it absolutely useless.

According to their privacy policy, they are using both AdMob and Facebook trackers on their other apps, so that may happen to Raivo as well at some point.
