Authenticator Apps

You can use any two factor authenticator app that supports the TOTP algorithm (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-based_One-time_Password_algorithm), the ones below are the apps we recommend to use with SIMPLer.


1) Authenticators for Windows 10 and macOS

*** NB - We do not recommend using Duo Authenticator App, as it does not adhere to the standards of other authenticator Apps

3) General Notes

Note that on Android it is possible to generate from the Google Authenticator App, one big Qcode and export / import all at once. This is useful to have in case the App fails or when switching phones. 

The following steps are a useful procedure, should an APP fail on your iPhone and it needs to be deleted / restored. These steps will allow the codes to be saved, while just the APP itself gets replaced - saving the hassle of re-setting up all codes.
