Google Authenticator is a free Android security app developed by Google that allows you to protect your accounts using two-factor authentication. This app generates unique multi-digit access codes that you'll need to use along with your credentials at login to verify your identity. With the app, you'll shield your accounts from access in a matter of seconds.

The first thing you need to do once you've downloaded Google Authenticator is to configure and link the accounts you want to protect. After this, you'll be able to import any lists from a previous device, type by hand or scan the QR code of the service you want to protect. This last option is the easiest, as you only have to point your camera at the QR code to link them automatically. If you don't have two-step authentication active on your social media profiles or online services and you want to activate it, you just need to scan the QR code in the settings of each platform.

Google Authenticator also offers a wide range of support for providers and accounts, including Google, Facebook, Twitter, Dropbox, Microsoft, and many others. Once all your profiles are linked, you'll receive an automatic alert every time you try to access them on an unknown device. You'll have to enter the code provided by the app to access your account. Thanks to this system, no one else will be able to access them since this key is needed to be able to get past this level of security.

Google Authenticator is, in short, a must-have security app for Android and one of the most convenient, safe and fast ways to protect your online accounts. Download the free Google Authenticator APK and add an additional layer of protection to your profiles to prevent unauthorized attempts to access your accounts.
