Finally. I recommend Authy for anyone who wants an app that saves stuff in the cloud for when you misplace or replace your phone (no need to remove/re-add the authenticator for every website).
Just remember to install it on more than one device and disable multi-device( If that is still on by default) once you have added your devices as you would still be vulnerable to SMS Hijacking.Finally.

THIS!!! I used Google Authenticator and I restored my phone (and another time replaced it with a new one) and it does NOT backup to the cloud. I had to go back and get all my 2FA codes from various sites, and I am sure I am missing some. Meanwhile with Authy, it backs up to the cloud and works greatly. Even for apps that say "Use Google Authenticator", Authy works.Finally.

Yeah, this is the answer.Finally. I recommend Authy for anyone who wants an app that saves stuff in the cloud for when you misplace or replace your phone (no need to remove/re-add the authenticator for every website).
Didn't know this but Google now offers a way to transfer accounts for when you get a new phone. I don't think there's any way for when people lose their phones/can't turn it on. But I'm glad to know they have this option.Finally.

Probably the same way as you do now by generating a device password on verified device.Now what about Vita/PS3 for people who still use those because not all games have been ported to other platforms?

Yes. Based on the description so far sounds like they are using industry standard TOTP codes meaning it should be compatible with majority of "authentication apps" like MS authenticator etc.Will this work with the MS Authenticator as well? That's the one I use (I wish Apple had an Authenticator app).
