I downloaded the app on my old phone to have a play around with, and when I tried to export my database I was met with a pop-up containing a check box for "Keep the database encrypted". I assume you have to have first encrypted the database with a password before being offered this, so perhaps if you haven't added a password then your back ups will be in plain text.

Oh wow I don't know how I missed that. I probably tried to backup before I added the password.

I don't agree authy is like blockchain.com

Though I'm with TryNinja in this case, your reasoning is definitely understandable. In the end it just completely depends on your risk appetite. The security of picking local backups compared to a company-server backup might be a bit overkill, but some of us are really just that paranoid. Tongue

Good thing I like is that Aegis also supports F-Droid and it is OpenSoruce.
No need to have GooglePlay installed.
Some people are privacy fanatics Wink

I debated a bit if adding the F-Droid link was actually necessary or not. I knew there are going to be a few privacy-paranoid people here LOL. Cheers.
