## What it is
Aegis Authenticator is a free, open-source Android app for managing two-factor authentication (2FA) tokens. It stores HOTP/TOTP tokens in an AES-256-GCM encrypted vault with password or biometric unlock, and supports backups, imports from many other authenticator apps, and organization features.

## Use cases
- generate TOTP 2FA codes on Android
- replace Google Authenticator or Authy with an open-source app
- back up two-factor tokens in an encrypted vault
- migrate tokens from other authenticator apps
- unlock 2FA codes with fingerprint or biometrics
- organize and search 2FA entries with icons and groups

## When to choose
- you want a free, open-source 2FA app on Android
- you need encrypted token storage with biometric unlock
- you want automatic backups and export of your tokens
- you need to import tokens from many other authenticator apps

## When to avoid
- you need 2FA on iOS or desktop (Aegis is Android-only)
- you need push-based or hardware-key (FIDO2/WebAuthn) authentication
- you prefer a cloud-synced authenticator like Authy
