Authenticator App for iPhone
Two-factor codes that stay on your iPhone
Authenticator App - Novaz makes the six-digit codes websites ask for when you sign in with two-factor authentication. Your setup keys are kept in this iPhone's Keychain and never leave it. There's no account to create and no server holding your codes.

The app, version 1.0.3. Example accounts.
What it does
Scan, pick a screenshot, or type a key
Add an account from the QR code a website shows, from a screenshot of it, or by entering the setup key.
How it works →Bring your Google Authenticator codes
Scan the Transfer accounts QR codes, including exports split over several codes. No need to visit every website again.
How it works →Face ID, Touch ID or a passcode
Lock the app separately from your iPhone and choose how soon it locks again. Codes are hidden in the App Switcher.
How it works →Catches a wrong clock
Codes depend on the time. Novaz checks your iPhone's clock and warns you if it's 15 seconds or more off, with a one-tap fix.
How it works →Copy without leaving a trace
A copied code clears from the clipboard when it expires and isn't shared to your other devices.
How it works →Pin, reorder, search
Keep the accounts you use most at the top, and find any account by service or email address.

Setting up an account
- 1
Turn on 2FA on the website
In its security settings, choose the authenticator app option. It shows a QR code.
- 2
Add it to Novaz
Tap +, then scan the QR code, choose a screenshot of it, or enter the key.
- 3
Confirm with a code
Type the code Novaz shows. From then on, you'll use a fresh code each time you sign in.
Where your keys live
- Setup keys are stored in the iPhone Keychain, marked "this device only". They aren't synced to iCloud.
- Codes are calculated on your iPhone. Nothing about your accounts is sent anywhere.
- No sign-up, no email address, no analytics SDK in the app.
Good to know before you start
In version 1.0.3:
- No iCloud backup or sync. Keys stay on one iPhone, so a new phone means setting accounts up again.
- No export to other apps.
- No Apple Watch app or widgets.
- Time-based codes (TOTP) only. No counter-based (HOTP) or Steam Guard codes.
