ente provides end-to-end encrypted cloud backups so that you don't have to worry
about losing your tokens. We use the same protocols [ente

### Multi Device Synchronization
2022-11-14 14:32:32 +00:00
ente will automatically sync the 2FA tokens you add to your account, across all
your devices. Every new device you sign into will have access to these tokens.

### Offline Mode
2022-11-14 14:32:32 +00:00
ente generates 2FA tokens offline, so your network connectivity will not get in
the way of your workflow.

### Import and Export Tokens
2022-11-14 14:32:32 +00:00
You can add tokens to ente by one of the following methods:
1. Scanning a QR code
2. Manually entering (copy-pasting) a 2FA secret
3. Bulk importing from a file that contains a list of codes in the following
format:
```
otpauth://totp/ACCOUNT?secret=SUPERSECRET& issuer=SERVICE
```
The codes maybe separated by new lines or commas.
You can also export the codes you have added to ente, to an **unencrypted** text
file, that adheres to the above format.
