Aegis Authenticator for Android
Manage two-step verification codes on Android with Aegis Authenticator, a free, open-source app with an encrypted vault, QR-code entry and automatic backups.
What is Aegis Authenticator?
Aegis Authenticator keeps HOTP and TOTP verification tokens in an Android app. Add accounts by scanning a QR code, entering the details manually or importing a supported export from another authenticator. Groups, sorting and search help organize accounts, while light, dark and AMOLED themes let you change how the token list looks.
The vault supports AES-256-GCM encryption with a password and optional biometric unlock. You can export entries in plaintext or encrypted form, or configure automatic vault backups to a location you choose. The linked publisher APK is version 3.4.3; its release notes add support for encrypted Proton Authenticator exports.
Aegis is not a built-in cloud-sync service. The publisher says the app has no internet access: automatic cloud backups require an installed provider app that supports Android's Storage Access Framework, or a separate app that syncs a local backup folder. Some direct imports from other authenticator apps require root access.
What it offers
- Generate verification codes for services that support the HOTP or TOTP standards.
- Add accounts from QR codes, manual entry or supported authenticator imports.
- Protect the vault with AES-256-GCM encryption, a password and optional biometric unlock.
- Organize entries with groups, custom sorting and search; choose light, dark or AMOLED themes.
- Export the vault in plaintext or encrypted form and configure automatic backups to a chosen location.
Good to know
- Cloud backup depends on a compatible installed storage-provider app or a separate folder-sync app; Aegis itself has no internet access.
- Some direct imports from other authenticator apps require a rooted device.
