Mediocre Apple Watch Support

If it’s required to chose a number to validate then why the Apple Watch can’t display the options? If I can text on my watch I should be able to chose the numbers . Do better.

Notifications Frustrating

The app has a simple function that is quite well implemented, but using the phone app is very frustrating. As this is meant to be an app for verification, I wish to have as little interaction as efficiently as possible. Unfortunately, the notification process allows so little time to hit “yes” before it changes to “review” that invariably the app opens which is a minor, but noticeable interruption to workflow and efficiency that I don’t encounter with other authenticator apps. I feel like this w

all good BUT

This detail is driving me crazy. The “yes it’s is me” button should be on the right like all the other reputable apps. NOT on the left. It is best practices. Hire some mature devs/designers. They should know.

Please add Apple Watch app

Please add Apple Watch compatibility to the app. It would make this app so much more easy to use.

AVP Compatible

Now that AVP compatibility has come out, it’s working perfectly for me. It’s seamless use of Optic ID for Fast Pass is perfect - love it

Please bring my Apple Watch support

Please bring back Apple Watch support. It was extremely helpful and allowed me to not look for my phone every 20 minutes. Thank you.

Vision OS

Please provide vision OS support

Vision Pro Support

Can t kind the key

Apple Watch

Accessibility issue

Hi product team, when I click on “Yes” button to verify, I will get a green confirmation banner. However this green banner will cover the two buttons, I had to manually swipe down the green banner to let it goes away if I received another verify push….. The tricky part:when you swipe down on iPhone, that triggers iPhone’s gesture, and you can’t even see the two buttons anymore. The solution: move the two buttons position higher so the that the green confirmation banner will not cover the t

Good app but Apple Watch app just broke

This is a good app and I liked that I could approve logins with my Apple Watch. After the last update all you can do is dismiss the alert not approve it. It needs to be fixed.

Apple Watch

Boooo. I can’t believe you removed Apple Watch support

Remember you did it

Call me if you’re safe

Doesn’t recognize my iPhone

For the past several months Okta has been saying it doesn’t recognize my iPhone. Nothing changed. Same phone.

Great app with impressive support

I’ve been using this app for logging in in the mornings with my company for at least three years. It’s always been a great app, but there was a recent update that screwed things up for a while. I either wrote a negative review or message to support with the issues. It’s about two weeks later now, and everything I complained about is fixed. It’s all perfect again, I’m very impressed! Thanks for the great app and the excellent support!

Watch support is bad

My company recently implemented a requirement to tap a number after approving a login. Ever since the change, the pop up to select a number hardly ever pops up on the watch. It just takes you to the screen with your codes. Really annoying.

Background Usage

The app works for what’s advertised; however, it is constantly running in the background whenever using my phone. Over the past day, I have had 8 hours of on screen time, with this app running for then entire 8 hours, and not even opened. This is an unnecessary amount of background usage. There is literally no excuse for this as every other Authenticator app does not do this. I’ll be petitioning my employer to allow another 2FA method as I no longer want this installed on my phone.

Work from home lifesaver

So easy and quick to get into my work apps with FaceID and was not difficult at all to get it downloaded again when I got my new phone.

Bring back Apple Watch support

Recently, I am no longer able to use my Apple Watch to verify. I need to go on my phone and verify and select the correct two digit number. This is a big hassle compared to just using my Apple Watch. This is a huge step back.

I’m not happy with the company that has been doing bad things to me

I’m just going to start by saying that if this app gives a company complete control over my personal devices and I have been dealing with a complete nightmare for a while and I’m just trying to make it make sense as to why this is even a thing

Doesn’t work with Apple Watch

Need I say more?

A UI that moves the buttons

When I get a push notification on iPhone, I have 2 buttons I can tap to indicate “yes” it’s me, or “no” it’s not me. Those buttons will move when it’s being shown. So I will push the wrong button unless I wait for the notification window to resize.

Enable number matching on Apple Watch

My company uses number matching for each Okta sign in and the fact that the Okta doesn’t support that on the Apple Watch app makes each sign-in significantly more annoying. Can you please enable number matching on the Apple Watch app too, please?! Thanks, guys!

Stops launching every now and then

Works great for a couple of days, then out of nowhere it just won’t launch. Tried killing the app, restarting my phone
