GOOD QUESTIONS
A little clarity
goes a long way.
Know what you’re trusting, before you trust it.
Do I need an account or an internet connection?
No Authora account is needed. Code generation and account storage work offline. Optional online service icons need a network connection; they are off by default.
Which verification codes does Authora support?
Authora supports TOTP, HOTP, Steam Guard login codes, mOTP, and compatible Yandex Key accounts. Steam trade and market confirmations are not supported. Your provider must support the account type you enroll.
Can I use a PIN and biometrics together?
Yes. With both enabled, Authora tries biometrics first. Cancel the biometric prompt and choose your PIN when you need it. You can change either method in Settings → Security.
What if I forget my vault or backup password?
There is no password-reset service that can recover your encrypted vault or backup. Keep your password, a current encrypted backup, and your providers’ recovery codes somewhere safe.
Does Authora send my accounts to a server?
Authora has no cloud-sync or analytics service. If you enable online icons, the icon provider receives the requested service name and your IP address, but not your enrollment key or generated code. Read the privacy policy for the full details.
