Tell HN: Twilio quietly removes Authy iOS app from Mac App Store, stops updates

  • I can recommend Ente Auth https://ente.io/auth/. I use it for a while now and I have read some positive reviews.

  • This was quite alarming! I thought it meant that Authy is discontinuing their iOS app entirely. Would have been great to mention even more explicitly that this does not impact iOS devices.

    As of now, I can still see Authy on my iPhone App Store (last update 3 days ago). Indeed, I am not able to install it from Mac App Store on my desktop/laptop.

    In any case, this resulted in my offboarding all my 2FA to a different app. Sorry, Authy and Twillio...

  • No worries, use Tofu

  • Damn so I’m potentially going to be locked out of accounts that require 2 factor auth where I use Authy ?
