Description

Use Microsoft Authenticator for easy, secure sign-ins for all your online accounts using multi-factor authentication, passwordless, or password autofill. You also have additional account management options for your Microsoft personal, work or school accounts.

Getting started with multi-factor authentication

Multi factor authentication (MFA)provides a second layer of security. When enabled, during login after entering your password, you’ll be asked for an additional way to prove it’s really you. Either approve the notification sent to the Microsoft Authenticator, or enter the one-time password (OTP) generated by the app. The OTP codes have a 30 second timer counting down. This timer is so you never have to use the same time-based one-time password (TOTP) twice and you don’t have to remember the number. The OTP doesn’t require you to be connected to a network, and it won’t drain your battery. You can add multiple accounts to your app, including non-Microsoft accounts like Facebook, Amazon, Dropbox, Google, LinkedIn, GitHub, and more.

Getting started with passwordless

Use your phone, not your password, to log into your Microsoft account. Just enter your username, then approve the notification sent to your phone. Your fingerprint, face ID, or PIN will provide a second layer of security in this two-step verification process. After you’ve signed in with two factor authentication (2FA), you’ll have access to all your Microsoft products and services, such as Outlook, OneDrive, Office, and more.

Getting started with autofill

Microsoft Authenticator app can also autofill passwords for you. Sign-in on the Passwords tab inside the Authenticator app with your personal Microsoft account to start syncing passwords, including the passwords saved in Microsoft Edge. Make Microsoft Authenticator the default autofill provider and start autofilling passwords on apps and sites you visit on your mobile. Your passwords are protected with multi-factor authentication in the app. You will need to prove yourself with your fingerprint, face ID, or PIN to access and autofill passwords on your mobile. You can also import passwords from Google Chrome and other password managers.

Microsoft personal, work or school accounts

Sometimes your work or school might ask you to install the Microsoft Authenticator when accessing certain organization resources. You will need to register your device to your organization through the app and add your work or school account. Microsoft Authenticator supports cert-based authentication by issuing a certificate on your device. This will let your organization know that the sign-in request is coming from a trusted device and help you seamlessly and securely access additional Microsoft apps and services without needing to log into each.

Can’t use autofill passwords

joisadler on

After the last update I can’t use my saved passwords for any app. I keep getting the “complete setup” pop up again and again although my setup is completed. I must use this MS Authenticator because my job requires it, and this is frustrating that because of that I can’t use saved passwords in my phone like normal people do.

As usual, Microsoft do not count their users. This app is not friendly and over protected so in many cases it's blocking the real user for 30 days although they know nothing is going to change in this very long period

Endless loop

Switched my phone today, logged in to the authenticator and then it showed a number which it asked me to type in the authenticator app.. WHICH I’M ALREADY IN AND TRYING TO LOG INTO!! Moronic design.

Since removing apple watch support i am actively advocating for a replacement

leotorjeman on

Okta, duo, all have apple watch support and the ability to approve from the watch. No idea why you removed it but it’s really impacting the functionality of this. I wish our organization will move to another solution with apple watch support

Bud user experience

Israel Israeli on

This app is a shame , it requires to add the number from the app to the app itself and it’s blocking the window where you can see the number despite there is a workaround this is very bad experience. Shame to Microsoft for allowing this.

Good protection service.
