But the service had one major drawback. You should always be connected to the phone you are using. This will change, as years after the first presentation of the application, you will be able to synchronize them of Google Authenticator with your Google account.

The new feature, which was announced today, has long been required of Authenticator users with many opting to use other services like Twilio's Authy app.

If you frequently switch devices, lose or break your device, you will know how useful the new addition to the service is. In addition, it will make it easier for users to ensure that the they are safe as they will no longer need to rely on of the app on a specific device to access the 2FA codes.

Of course, this means that an attacker who gains access to your Google Account will also be able to access your other online services. So you should be sure that your Google accounts are properly protected.

Overall, adding sync support to Google Authenticator was a much-needed improvement that will make the app much friendlier. With this new feature, Google has taken a big step towards making 2FA more accessible and secure for everyone. You can download the new Google Authenticator app from Store.
