    Las time I checked those that require a Microsoft or other propietary authenticator app that isn’t Google’s. They would force you to first use that propietary app and later export to Aegis. Correct me if I’m wrong, of course.

      Just checked, you’re right about Google. Microsoft does allow you to use any app though. It’s funny that the “EEE” Microsoft is less anti-user than the “Don’t be evil” Google. But anyway, seeing how Google locks it down, I’m sure there must be others too. So you’re right

        I was referring to other services requiring specific propietary authenticator apps. Many sites will be compatible with Aegis even if they don’t mention apps other than their own in their step-by-step guide. Have you tried? If it isn’t compatible through scan or manual code input the 2FA setup simply won’t finish.
