Authenticators - select the right one.
One day, while getting very frustrated with Microsoft (MS) Authenticator during a phone migration, copilot gave me a run down of the differences between Microsoft Authenticator and Google Authenticator. I've pasted the run down below but what it does NOT make clear is that Microsoft Authenticator does NOT fully cloud backup tokens so that they can restored on another phone via the primary account. MS Authenticator only "backs up" essentially the token name (email). Only token names restore to the new phone during a migration. If you're using Microsoft Authenticator for you MS accounts then *every* account must be manually restored, pretty much in the same way it was setup originally, but scanning an onscreen QR code. This is a very long job if you have a lot of Microsoft Account tokens. While Google Authenticator does not have the same features it does successfully backup and restore tokens to the Google Drive making phone migration a LOT simpler. ***** Bot...
