The key differences between Google Authenticator and SAASPASS Authenticator:


  • SAASPASS encrypts all data, whereas Google Authenticator stores keys in plain/clear text; this is a problem especially with rooted devices and backup programs, where unencrypted data can be viewed easily
  • Malware and Man-in-the-Phone attack vectors are becoming increasingly common on Android mobile devices, SAASPASS mitigates against this risk
  • SAASPASS shows visual icons for each application to help users identify particular application codes
  • PIN protection
  • Configurable PIN settings - support for 4 or 6 digits and scrambled keypad
  • Fingerprint Unlock - Touch ID on iOS Devices and Android support on Android Marshmallow OS 6.0 onwards
  • Face ID support
  • Pattern support on Android Devices (both visible and invisible options)
  • The PIN for the SAASPASS app is never stored in the app (which is why you have to re-enter the PIN if you kill the app for Touch ID, Face ID, biometric or fingerprint unlock)
  • Multiple Devices support (with device management) without having to set them up individually again & again
  • Multiple Device set up in a secure manner - Cloning with a randomly generated code (and not static phone verification eliminating mobile phone porting scams)
  • Option of Cloud Syncing capabilities with cross-platform support (Android and iOS)
  • Main Menu that you can customize
  • Variety of different sources other than Authenticator
