9 months ago, Raivo OTP for iOS was sold to Mobime. Raivo was hailed highly in terms of privacy, but was dethroned to 2FAS Auth after that incident. Today, Raivo launched an update, and after updating all of my entries were completely wiped. I didn’t have a backup, but even if I did you now have to pay in order to import/export TOTP codes. No thank you.

If you haven’t already, create a backup right now for all of your 2FA apps, even if you think it won’t break.

    Thank you for the heads up. Mine had already updated this morning. Not sure if you were able to get yours working but in case others are having problems the new update splash screen prompts you to select a subscription option. If you close that prompt it will ask to choose local/cloud storage and enter your master password. Once I did that all of my keys showed up.

    Having said all of that I will be switching out of this app as soon as I find a replacement. Totally fine if developers want to generate revenue by adding features or services (I pay for plenty of great apps) but this is a clear attempt to generate revenue quickly. Even a simple splash screen warning users this was coming would have demonstrated some confidence in the new ownership, but they have traded any confidence for a quick dollar.

    Edit: they have locked the zip export feature behind their paywall 🤬 I would rather spend all day manually moving codes than give these scammers a single dime

      Sadly they didn’t show up for me. Best of luck exporting your codes o7

      Edit: I’ve been really happy with 2FAS as an alternative.
