Switch from LastPass Authenticator
Move from LastPass Authenticator to TOTP Authenticator
Takes about 15–30 minutes, depending on how many accounts you have · You won't lose access to anything
LastPass Authenticator has no way to export your accounts to another app, so switching to TOTP Authenticator means setting two-factor authentication up again on each account, one at a time.
Steps (repeat for each account)
-
List what you need to move
Open LastPass Authenticator and note every account you added there. That’s your checklist: the app won’t show or export the underlying codes for accounts you already set up.
-
Turn 2FA off, then back on, for each account
In the account itself, open its security settings, remove the existing authenticator method, then set one up again to get a fresh QR code.
-
Scan the new QR in TOTP Authenticator
Add → Scan QR, then confirm the six-digit code matches before you move to the next account and remove it from LastPass Authenticator.
If something went wrong
"I use LastPass Authenticator only because my LastPass password manager suggested it"
You can keep LastPass for passwords and use TOTP Authenticator only for two-factor codes. The two aren’t linked on the accounts you protect.
"The site only lists “LastPass Authenticator”, no QR code"
Look for “can’t scan the QR code?” or “enter this code manually”. Most sites still show the secret key as text, and you can add that in TOTP Authenticator by manual entry.
"Codes are rejected after re-enrolling"
Usually that’s clock drift on your phone, not the new setup. See how to fix clock drift

What's different here
LastPass Authenticator is built around your LastPass account, and it can approve LastPass sign-ins with a push. TOTP Authenticator isn't tied to a password manager account, and it behaves the same way for every service you protect. Backup, restore and moving accounts by QR are free. A one-time purchase (per platform) adds Cloud Sync and browser push, see /pricing.
