In this article, I will show you how to generate a new set of QR codes and the Secret Keys from the data extracted from the QR codes generated by the Google Authenticator app. To export Google Authenticator to LastPass, you have to extract the Secret Keys from the Google Authenticator QR codes generated by the Transfer Accounts option found in the app. Luckily for you, I have already found the solution.Īlthough I personally have been using 1Password not LastPass, the solution applies to any application that supports multifactor authentication, including LastPass Authenticator. Go through the list of accounts you've configured in the app, turning 2FA off and on for each one.If you like me and have been using Google Authenticator instead of your Password Manager to save your 2FA accounts, you may be wondering how to now move these accounts to LastPass Authenticator so you don’t have to rely on multiple applications. To remove an account from Google Authenticator, tap and hold on it, then press the Trash Button (top right). It's always a good idea to check that the login you've swapped is working before moving on to the next one. In Authy, tap Add Account and then Scan QR Code. Click Set Up, and you'll eventually be shown a QR code, which you can scan using the Authy app. These days, Google prefers to use a prompt on your phone as the 2FA confirmation, but you'll find an authenticator app option further down the settings screen once 2FA is back in place. You'll be taken through the process of setting up 2FA on your account. With a Google account, for example, you need to open your account page on the web, select Security and 2-Step Verification, click Turn Off, confirm your choice, click 2-Step Verification again, and then click Get Started. Obviously, the exact process will depend on which accounts you use.
