Use Microsoft Authenticator for easy, secure sign-ins for all your online accounts using multi-factor authentication, passwordless, or password autofill. You also have additional account management options for your Microsoft personal, work or school accounts. Getting started with multi-factor authentication Multi factor authentication (MFA) or two factor authentication (2FA) provides a second layer of security. When logging in with multi-factor authentication, you’ll enter your password, and then you’ll be asked for an additional way to prove it’s really you. Either approve the notification sent to the Microsoft Authenticator, or enter the one-time password (OTP) generated by the app. The one-time passwords (OTP codes) have a 30 second timer counting down. This timer is so you never have to use the same time-based one-time password (TOTP) twice and you don’t have to remember the number. The one-time password (OTP) doesn’t require you to be connected to a network, and it won’t drain your battery. You can add multiple accounts to your app, including non-Microsoft accounts like Facebook, Amazon, Dropbox, Google, LinkedIn, GitHub, and more. Getting started with passwordless Use your phone, not your password, to log into your Microsoft account. Just enter your username, then approve the notification sent to your phone. Your fingerprint, face ID, or PIN will provide a second layer of security in this two-step verification process. After you’ve signed in with two factor authentication (2FA), you’ll have access to all your Microsoft products and services, such as Outlook, OneDrive, Office, and more. Getting started with autofill Microsoft Authenticator app can also autofill passwords for you. Sign-in on the Passwords tab inside the Authenticator app with your personal Microsoft account to start syncing passwords, including the passwords saved in Microsoft Edge. Make Microsoft Authenticator the default autofill provider and start autofilling passwords on apps and sites you visit on your mobile. Your passwords are protected with multi-factor authentication in the app. You will need to prove yourself with your fingerprint, face ID, or PIN to access and autofill passwords on your mobile. You can also import passwords from Google Chrome and other password managers. Microsoft personal, work or school accounts Sometimes your work or school might ask you to install the Microsoft Authenticator when accessing certain files, emails, or apps. You will need to register your device to your organization through the app and add your work or school account. Microsoft Authenticator also supports cert-based authentication by issuing a certificate on your device. This will let your organization know that the sign-in request is coming from a trusted device and help you seamlessly and securely access additional Microsoft apps and services without needing to log into each. Because Microsoft Authenticator supports single sign-on, once you have proven your identity once, you will not need to log in again to other Microsoft apps on your device. Optional Access permissions: Microsoft Authenticator includes the following optional access permissions. All these require user consent. If you choose to not grant these optional access permissions, you can still use Microsoft Authenticator for other services that do not require such permission. For more information see https://aka.ms/authappfaq Accessibility Service: Used to optionally support Autofill on more apps and sites. Location: Sometimes your organization wants to know your location before allowing you to access certain resources. The app will request this permission only if your organization has a policy requiring location. Camera: Used to scan QR codes when you add a work, school, or non-Microsoft account. Read the contents of your storage: This permission is only used when you report a technical problem through the app settings. Some information from your storage is collected to diagnose the issue.

Functionally, app is working well. I feel confident it is doing said job of making my data safe and secure online. I'd like to see this form of authentication used more! As a suggestion for UI, I would suggest that when prompted for a password that it is made clear this is an opportunity for fingerprint identification as well. Currently I see only an underscore, which I wager may mislead some users into believing that the field is only accepting keyboard driven passcodes.

A very simple way to confirm identity and keep accounts secure which is miles and miles above such methods as (the omni present and painful to use captcha, and the mind numbing process of others which ask even for the day, month, and year you opened your email for example - please!!). It's just one more reason why i constantly choose Microsoft over any of its competitors.

Secure way to log in to Outlook. BUT you have to be fairly nimble. Sometimes the request for authentication is made very quickly on the originating device... which can leave me fumbling to find Authenticator on my smartphone. However, that's a comment more about me than about the app. So .. no stars deducted!!

After all the stress and about a few many tries, I remembered how to use this. Best to add all my email accounts so that I use this app more. I don't visit my msn account often, needed to get to my email and for the life of me, I just couldn't remember what to do with the last part. Just reviewed the instructions above and oh man I'm in. Two funny. I guess there is so much to look at, but it's really simple once you remember. But I'm ok, it's for my safety and fast when you got a whole bunch of email accounts.

Edit: Now everything works perfect! It would be a 5 star review if the code prompt was shown without me having to manually open the app and choose the account and then press the code shown on the second screen. Else, it is a brilliant app guaranteeing that you are in charge of who logs in, even if someone happened to know your password for whatever reason.
