~~There are many forms of 2FA. I'm guessing you mean TOTPs~~ oh you actually wrote that, my bad lol.
I copy the keys from Aegis to KeePassXC. KeyPassXC's database is part of my regular backup. This way I have two apps generating the same TOTPs.
I was afraid of using keypassxc since I dont trust myself, but using it as a backup sounds like amazing solution. Thank you
Personally I recommend just using KeePassXC and a KeePass app (I use KeePassium on iPhone).
You always have access to all your data that way. No company is monitoring you. A lot of apps make it very difficult to backup!
My totp database is in the cloud for syncing but needs a key file I don’t keep in the cloud (and a password). My passwords are entirely separate.
