LastPass Authenticator
gamed ratingAn authenticator that's supposed to make login easier but in practice makes it harder: codes disappear, moving to a new phone requires simultaneous access to the old phone and a computer, and push authorization gets stuck in an endless loop.

About the rating
Store average 4.65 vs text average 2.11 a 2.5-point gap with only 17% five-stars. Real user sentiment is strongly negative: codes disappear, migration is a multi-step ordeal, the app loops on authorization. The high store rating clearly reflects an earlier version of the product.
Strengths
What users love
- Push notification on computer login is convenient
- ICloud backup works for users who have it set up correctly.
Weak spots
What users hate
- Loss of all codes without warning
- Extremely difficult migration between devices
- The app gets stuck in an approval loop
- Stage Manager broken on iPad.
Who it is for
Only single-device users with a working LastPass ecosystem everyone else should use Authy or a built-in authenticator.
