Twilio has finally killed off its Authy for Desktop application, forcibly logging users out of the desktop application.

    How did any sites insist in Authy? Was it not just a generic MFA app and so users could choose any they liked?

      No there were some that only took Authy, that’s why it was such a pain. Twilio itself might have been one that later relented and enabled regular TOTP.

        Interesting. Definitely a sucky move by Twilio and the sites that colluded with them on it.
