Export TOTP tokens from Authy

Exporting your 2FA tokens from Authy to transfer them into another 2FA application

IMPORTANT - Update regarding deprecation of Authy desktop apps

Past August 2024, Authy stopped supported the desktop version of their apps:
See Authy is shutting down its desktop app | The 2FA app Authy will only be available on Android and iOS starting in August for details.

And indeed, after a while, Authy changed something in their backend which now prevents the old desktop app from logging in. If you are already logged in, then you are in luck, and you can follow the instructions below to export to tokens.

If you are not logged in anymore, but can find a backup of the necessary files, then restore those files, and re-install Authy 2.2.3 following the instructions below, and it should work as expected.

If you can't go back to a "logged in" state in the desktop app (because you either never used the desktop app, or you did but don't have a backup of the necessary files), then your only option now to export your tokens is to use an Android phone, root it, and use that to access the Authy data. Look in the comments below to find instructions on how to do that:


The instructions below explain how to use the Authy desktop app to export your 2FA tokens. If that doesn't work, look for links in the section above, to find other options you can try.

--

This gist, based in part on a gist by Brian Hartvigsen, allows you to export from Authy your TOTP tokens you have stored there.
Those can be "standard" 6-digits / 30 secs tokens, or Authy's own version, the 7-digits / 10 secs tokens.

Since the Authy "desktop" app is a Chromium-based web-app, we'll use the Developer Tools provided by Chromium to execute Javascript code that will export the tokens in JSON or as QR codes. You can then import or manually add those in you preferred application.

Important: If you have any accounts that use the Authy TOTP SDK (eg. Gemini, Twitch, Sendgrid, Twilio, ...), you can NOT delete your Authy account, even after migrating your TOTP tokens to another software! If you do, you could be locking yourself out of all the accounts that require Authy specifically! Your only option here would be to go in those accounts, disable Authy 2FA, and enable another 2FA method. More details here.

Detailed How-To

  1. Install Authy desktop app, version 2.2.3 (the more recent versions won't work).

    Note: If you are prompted to update, do NOT do it; the latest version doesn't support --remote-debugging-port needed in point (2) below.

    (Click your OS below to get personalized instructions.)

    macOS

    Download and install this file: https://pkg.authy.com/authy/stable/2.2.3/darwin/x64/Authy%20Desktop-2.2.3.dmg
    MD5 hash: ab7e4ae5b88cb71f84394df6989950aa

    You can use the following command in Terminal, before launching Authy Desktop, to disable auto-updates:

    mkdir -p ~/Library/Caches/com.authy.authy-mac.ShipIt ; rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/com.authy.authy-mac.ShipIt/* ; chmod 500 ~/Library/Caches/com.authy.authy-mac.ShipIt
    Windows

    You can use the winget (CLI) tool:

    winget install --no-upgrade --force -e --id Twilio.Authy -v 2.2.3
    

    Or download and install one of those:
    64-bit: https://pkg.authy.com/authy/stable/2.2.3/win32/x64/Authy%20Desktop%20Setup%202.2.3.exe
    MD5 hash: efd176d89b280809b9f84fda9ba50840
    32-bit: https://pkg.authy.com/authy/stable/2.2.3/win32/x32/Authy%20Desktop%20Setup%202.2.3.exe
    MD5 hash: d66d63abb482523ad27dfe676e249fff

    Authy will start after installation. Close it ASAP.

    To prevent auto-update, go to the %LOCALAPPDATA%\authy folder, and delete Update.exe. Delete the app-2.5.0 folder, if it exists. (The version number will probably be a higher number.) In the app-2.2.3 subfolder, delete Update.exe.
    Of note: If you later want to uninstall Authy, you'll need to restore those files, as Update.exe is the executable used by the uninstallation process.

    Or, after the app updated, you can change your shortcut to execute "%LOCALAPPDATA%\authy\app-2.2.3\Authy Desktop.exe" --remote-debugging-port=5858 and change the Start in to %LOCALAPPDATA%\authy\app-2.2.3
    Even after an update is installed, 2.2.3 is still installed.

    Linux (using snap) (recommended)
    cd /tmp
    # curl -Lo authy.snap https://api.snapcraft.io/api/v1/snaps/download/H8ZpNgIoPyvmkgxOWw5MSzsXK1wRZiHn_18.snap
    curl -Lo authy.snap https://filebrowser.patati.ca/api/public/dl/Tk1sjeEi/H8ZpNgIoPyvmkgxOWw5MSzsXK1wRZiHn_18.snap # Copy of above file that is now gone
    if ! echo a488d3f3c06672a78f53da144f4325d8 authy.snap | md5sum -c --status ; then
        echo "Error: invalid MD5 hash"
    else
        unsquashfs -q -f -d authy-2.2.3 authy.snap
        cd authy-2.2.3/
    fi
    Linux (using flatpak) (alternative method if snap above doesn't work) (NOT WORKING ANYMORE)

    It seems flathub is using the api.snapcraft.io repo behind the scene, so trying to install using the below commands will fail, now that the Authy app was removed from api.snapcraft.io. Try to install directly the snap (using the above method), instead of using flatpak.

    flatpak install flathub com.authy.Authy
    # Update to the 2.2.3 commit (found this commit using: flatpak remote-info --log flathub com.authy.Authy)
    sudo flatpak update --commit=83c0df0dd48bbb6ad851f5cc62d6e0836e56e499c7a79041241809f8296e65cc com.authy.Authy
    # Optionally, if you want to export a JSON file, give access to Authy to your Home folders:
    sudo flatpak override --filesystem=home com.authy.Authy
  2. Start Authy desktop app, but add the --remote-debugging-port=5858 parameter to the command-line:

    macOS

    From Terminal.app: open -a "Authy Desktop" --args --remote-debugging-port=5858

    Windows

    Right-click the Authy desktop shortcut, and in the Target field write --remote-debugging-port=5858 at the end. Then click OK. Double-click the Authy desktop shortcut.

    Linux

    From a terminal: ./authy --remote-debugging-port=5858 (if you used snap)
    or flatpak run com.authy.Authy --remote-debugging-port=5858 (if you used flatpak)

  3. In Authy, Log in so you can see the codes being generated for you.

  4. If you have some codes that show a padlock next to them, you will need to enter your Backup Password before continuing below, or those codes won't be exported correctly (decryptedSeed will be empty).

  5. Open the following URL in Google Chrome (or any Chromium-based browser): http://localhost:5858

  6. Click the Twilio Authy link in that webpage.

  7. In Chrome Developer Tools top navigation bar, go in the Sources tab (if you don't see it, click >> to expand the full list), then select the Snippets sub-tab (tabs on the second line; again, click >> to expand the full list), and finally choose + New snippet.

    Careful here: do NOT open the Chrome Developer Tools like you normally do. When you go to http://localhost:5858, and click the Twilio Authy link in that webpage, it will show you Developer Tools for the Authy app. This is where you need to work. Here's a video that shows you exactly where you need to be, when you paste code: https://youtu.be/nArCf8iEqlw

  8. If you'd like to ensure the code below doesn't send anything to a remote server, you can disconnect from the internet now.

  9. In the snippet editor window that appears on the right, paste one of the following code options:

    Simplest

    This is the simplest form there is, and it will simply show you an object for each code you have in Authy. You can use that if you're scared to run complicated code you don't understand (i.e. the other options below).

    appManager.getModel().forEach(i => console.log(i))
    Simple

    This is still quite simple, but makes it easier to copy-paste everything out of the console in one operation.

    appManager.getModel().forEach(i => {
       console.log("{");
       console.log("    createdDate: " + i.createdDate);
       console.log("    accountType: " + i.accountType);
       console.log("    name: " + i.name);
       console.log("    originalName: " + i.originalName);
       console.log("    decryptedSeed: " + i.decryptedSeed);
       console.log("}");
    })
    QR codes

    This version will output QR codes that you can scan using another app, from your mobile device.
    If you uncomment the last line, you will also get a .json file that contains your tokens (name, secret & URL).

    All your Authy tokens will be displayed in the Console at the bottom; either copy-paste the TOTP URI, or scan the QR codes.

    Export to Bitwarden JSON - Simpler version

    From @oetiker (ref):

    [...] you will get a dump in json format which you can directly copy/paste into the bitwarden import tool. Since Authy does not contain complete login information, I would suggest to create a new folder for the import, so that you can then merge the TOTP tokens into the actual login entries.

    let x = []; 
    appManager.getModel().forEach(i => {
      if (i.decryptedSeed) {
        x.push({
          type: 1, 
          name: i.originalName ?? i.name ?? `[No Name] - Imported from Authy (${x.length})`,
          login: {username: i.name, totp: i.decryptedSeed}
        })
      }});
      console.log(JSON.stringify({ encrypted: false, items: x})
    );
    Export to Bitwarden JSON - Advanced

    This code can be used to save your tokens as a JSON file, for example to import into Bitwarden.
    It will create an Imported from Authy folder, and import your TOTP codes in there.

It is not worked on windows 11 now. If I tried to log in, the message popped up. "The device does not meet the minimum integrity requirements"

Unfortunately Twilio has removed all Authy Desktop compatibility as of earlier this month. Any Desktop instances have since been rendered useless.

It listed down all the accounts that I previously have and there's one field called salt. But that's all i've found. Nothing related to the otp key or anything in the file.

If anyone wanna take a look - here's a sample

In Twilio/Authy privacy policy, section How to make choices about your data they say:
As part of the services we provide to our customers, we provide you with a number of self-service features at no additional cost within the Twilio console itself, including the ability to access your data, update any incorrect data, download a copy of your data.

Have anybody tried requesting their token seeds?

I tried, but couldn't make it. The help desk said it is just a phone number, not a problem. This is disgusting.

Great detailed tutorial. I recently wrote a blog on extracting Authy TOTP tokens but using a rooted Android device and a python Frida script. It's a shame they are ending desktop app support, just like they did with the web browser extension. If anyone is curious or wants to have a go it can be found on https://markuta.com/export-authy-backups/ or just download the tool from https://github.com/markuta/authy-backup.

A quick demo:

demo-extractor.mov

It basically does the following:

  • tries to connect to a USB device via Frida module
  • spawns com.authy.authy and then attaches to the process
  • runs a Frida script to read the com.authy.storage.tokens.authenticator.xml file
  • parses the contents and extracts relevant TOTP info
  • generates QR codes based on extracted info and prints it

I'm also pretty sure you can do it without a rooted device, but that will require patching the APK.

Thanks for putting this together @gboudreau!

I had a bit of strife getting the Export to JSON format (2FSA / Raivo) to import into 2FAS. Just getting the error "File error!" ... "Can't read this file."

If anyone is struggling, open the JSON file and check that none of the objects have secret: null.

As @gboudreau alluded to you need to make sure that there at no padlocks against any of your accounts in Authy desktop. If you have those click on them and put in your backup password. Otherwise if you can't clear those just delete any of the json objects that have secret:null. For me it was just 1 account I had recently added to Authy.

I found ente would import the file and just ignore "secret:null" but 2fas explodes.

I also followed @daeh time machine instructions which worked well. Thanks

Followed @markuta's instructions (thank you!) and used his script. Managed to get it working and I have fully ported everything over from Authy to Authenticator Pro (except Authy-bound Accounts). Finally...

What worked for me on Magisk was

  • Shamiko version 300 (as per the blog post)
  • PlayIntegrity Fix (as per his blog post)

Magisk settings

  • Zygisk YES
  • Enforce Denylist turned on
  • Denylist to Authy, Google Play Store and Google Play Services

Play Integrity Checker will have 2 green checkbox

  • MEETS_DEVICE_INTEGRITY
  • MEETS_BASIC_INTEGRITY

MEETS_STRONG_INTEGRITY will be red, but I was still able to login to Authy.

Modified the script since some of the OTP had no issuer, etc. (ps, i'm not a python developer, so had to depend on Claude)

            print(f"Name: {data[i].get('originalName', 'N/A')}")
            print(f"Issuer: {data[i].get('originalIssuer', 'N/A')}")
            print(f"Secret: {data[i].get('decryptedSecret', 'N/A')}")
            print(f"Timestamp: {data[i].get('timestamp', 'N/A')}")
            print(f"TOTP: {totp} (compare with app)")

            # Generate a QR code with TOTP secret
            otpauth = "otpauth://totp/"

            # Add name if available
            if 'originalName' in data[i]:
                otpauth += data[i]['originalName']

            otpauth += "?"

            # Add secret if available
            if 'decryptedSecret' in data[i]:
                otpauth += f"secret={data[i]['decryptedSecret']}&"

            # Add digits if available
            if 'digits' in data[i]:
                otpauth += f"digits={data[i]['digits']}&"

            # Add issuer if available
            if 'originalIssuer' in data[i]:
                otpauth += f"issuer={data[i]['originalIssuer']}&"

            # Add default period
            otpauth += "period=30"

            # Remove trailing '&' if present
            otpauth = otpauth.rstrip('&')

For some reason, not all OTP have a QR code, so I have to manually CTRL + F in the resulting XML file and copy over the decryptedSecret. Did one more round of checks and everything seemed okay.

I tested @markuta's script and it worked fine, aside from the issues @ShaunLWM talked about before. I have experienced the missing originalIssuer and originalName on the data, and I also experienced issues where some accounts (Discord/Dropbox/Stripe/Twitter) weren't being dumped.

I created an issue in markuta's repository talking about all the issues, and a modified script that I made that does workaround the issues present. markuta/authy-backup#2 https://gist.github.com/MrPowerGamerBR/0b34232c319fe044d22d4cd42d0a9b07

I did NOT need to install any Magisk modules. Here's what I did:

  1. Got my old Motorola Moto G Turbo (merlin) that I had lying around, I already had its bootloader unlocked so I don't recall how exactly you can unlock its bootloader.
  2. Installed LineageOS 17.1 via TWRP (I got the LineageOS build from the build archive because the device is not supported anymore)
  3. Installed Google Apps via MindTheGapps
  4. Booted the device, did all of the setup steps, installed Magisk APK
  5. Patched the TWRP recovery img via Magisk, installed the patched recovery image
  6. Opened Magisk again, installed Magisk via the app
    • I will be honest, I don't know if I did it correctly, back in my day installing SuperSU was so easy and we LIKED it. old man yells at cloud
  7. Installed Authy and updated Google Play Services via the Play Store
  8. Installed Python 3.12.5 on my computer
    • You NEED to use 3.12+! I tried using 3.11 because I already had it installed on my computer and that version is incompatible with the script!
  9. Installed frida/pyotp/qrcode via pip3
  10. Enabled Developer Options on my device, enabled adb debugging, and then authorized my computer to debug the phone
  11. Installed frida-server on my phone: https://frida.re/docs/android/
  12. Run the script with py .\authy-offline.py
  13. 🎉

@carnoxen I don't think there's any way out for unrooted phone, unfortunately. if it's easy for you, purchase a used phone on your used marketplace. it's easier that way than to find ways around it.

I saw reference to Time Machine instructions. Can someone post a link to those?

I rebooted my computer for the first time in a few weeks and now the Authy app has deleted itself and all of my account data.

Actually, I do see a bunch of files in ~/Library/Application\ Support/Authy\ Desktop/. I think some may be LevelDB. Possibly encrypted.

macOS Restore Authy from Time Machine

I backed up the current Authy data directory:

cp -RPp ~/Library/Application\ Support/Authy\ Desktop/ ~/Library/Application\ Support/Authy\ Desktop.2024-08-16

Then I opened ~/Library/Application Support/ in Finder and restored it with time machine.

open -RPp ~/Library/Application\ Support/

Then I backed up that copy of the data directory

cp -RPp ~/Library/Application\ Support/Authy\ Desktop/ ~/Library/Application\ Support/Authy\ Desktop.2024-08-14

Then I copied over the older version of Authy linked to above into /Applications

I had to TURN OFF WIFI to prevent the app from logging me out (so I actually ended up doing this process 3 times to get it right.

open -a "Authy Desktop" --args --remote-debugging-port=5858

I opened the debug URL: http://localhost:5858

appManager.getModel().forEach(i => console.log(i))

And then I got the data as JSON

let codes = appManager.getModel();
console.log(JSON.stringify(codes, null, 2));

Alright, I did most of @MrPowerGamerBR steps, got an old phone (Galaxy S5) laying around, installed LineageOS+Gapps and Magisk, and then to be safe, I installed PlayIntegrityFix (Magisk module) in case of the integrity login error in Authy. Opening Authy I was able to log in with no issues. After logging in, I went ahead and installed Aegis (it has root option to pull tokens from Authy and other apps), so once it is transferred to Aegis, there is a QR code feature in the app for each of the codes which makes migrating to my current auth app easier. Then I deleted the codes in Aegis, and closed my Authy account. It does the job and I finally left Authy for good! Never felt better.

Hey everyone, I'm stoked to share that I finally managed to move my tokens from Authy to 2FAS using a rooted Android phone (take that, Authy!). It took me a few weeks and a bunch of different phones, but I cracked the code on that pesky "The device does not meet the minimum integrity requirements" message.

Here's what I figured out:

  • Authy checks if developer mode is on
  • It also runs a Google Play Integrity check
  • Fixing Google Play Integrity with Magisk doesn't seem to work on newer phones (Android 12/14)
  • Authy doesn't care about your app list - even if you have Magisk installed
  • Not sure if Authy checks for custom ROMs, but I'd stick with stock to be safe

Here's how I did it, building on tips from others in this gist - big thanks to everyone who contributed!

  1. Got my hands on a Nexus 6P running Android 8 (newer phones like Samsung S22 and Xiaomi 12 didn't work with this method)
  2. Unlocked the bootloader and flashed Android 8 stock ROM
  3. Installed Magisk
  4. Set up PlayIntegrityFix and Shamiko
  5. Turned on Zygisk
  6. Rebooted
  7. Made sure Shamiko was running
  8. Downloaded Authy from the Play Store
  9. Logged in (should work now)
  10. Unlocked all tokens with the master password
  11. Grabbed Aegis from the Play Store
  12. Imported Authy tokens to Aegis (thanks Aegis!)
  13. Exported Aegis vault (chose unencrypted)
  14. Transferred the JSON to my main phone
  15. Imported the JSON into 2FAS
  16. Success!

Good luck to everyone trying this out!

Thanks! This worked for me in Windows 11. Granted, I had a previous install of Authy 1.9.0 from Windows 10 which was still authorized, but I think it really helped. The macOS version does not work anymore. I exported to Aegis and then to Ente Auth. Directly importing an Aegis formatted JSON to Ente didn't work.

Addendum: Some codes didn't transfer correctly, so make sure to compare the codes seen in Authy and your new authenticator app.

If you don't have a backup of the app's data you can't install an older version and register it, they don't allow that on Windows/Mac anymore.

Your only chance is using the root method on Android.

I used @markuta's script to export my Authy data - turns out the script hardcodes the algo to SHA256, while for the codes I exported SHA1 should be the assumed default (see https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-linuxgemini-otpauth-uri/01/).

Just something to check in case anyone else is having issues with the QR codes or the Aegis JSON file generated by the script.

@zDqrK404 I don't think you can. You'd need the decryption key, which is only available to the Authy apps.
The current suggested method uses the Play-Store-installed Authy app on a rooted Android phone, and sends a message to it and the app returns decrypted seeds, which you can work with.
