Sign Up

When you first open Authman, you may not have account yet, click Create an account and go to sign up page:

Enter you email and password to sign-up, currently we won't send verify email to user, so make sure you enter correct personal email and use a strong password to protect your account.

After signed-up, you will auto login to Authman, please check Token Managements to see how to create your first token.

Sign In

If you sign-out of Authman, or install on a new device, you must re-login to Authman. Just fill your email and password to sign-in.

Note, Authman use your password to encrypt & decrypt your all tokens, if you forgot your password, currently it is no way to take your 2FA tokens back. Please see FAQ to know how we protect your key and data.

Screen Lock

Authman will auto lock your app if user has no any actions over 5 minutes.

All decrypted tokens will release when app lock, you must provide your password to unlock, since we use your password to encrypt tokens, the password is necessary to re-decrypt tokens after unlock.

Touch ID & Face ID

If you are tired to enter password to unlock every time, you can enable the Biometrics unlock mode. Go to Options and enable the Biometrics toggler. Authman will ask your password again and save the KEK (which is derived from your password.) in device secure storage. Next time you can unlock device by Touch ID or Face ID and without entering password.

IMPORTANT

Authman will never store your password.
