2024-12-14 | Cheat Root | either make it compatible with Microsoft authenticator, or change the icon so that it isn't confusing to the eye. works great 👍 | |
2024-12-12 | Dave Marien | I use the media server. Works like a charm and as expected. Options are intuitive, easy to set-up | |
2024-12-08 | G P | Glitchy. no longer showing 3 x 2 digit verification number. | |
2024-12-02 | Hieu Bui Quang | sometimes do not pop up notification for approval login 2fa from other device | |
2024-11-26 | HulkGameCrit | they released this app and auto updated all associated signin pages to reflect that app. now when i sign in, im badgered with error messages designed only for the app when my nas wasnt set up for the app. meaning im freaking stuck. synology has done some dumb stuff in the past but causing permanent lock out loop is a new level of stupid | |
2024-11-24 | Robert | sometimes the requests don't show up as notification, only once opening the app and waiting a few moments | |
2024-11-20 | Mike Wilson | it keeps losing the settings and you no longer get notified and you can not sign into your devices. big hassle. do not use! | |
2024-10-31 | Anirudh Pratap Singh | Good concept but app does not always shows the sign in numbers quickly | |
2024-10-23 | Matteo Vicini | Sometimes it just doesn't work without any understandable reason, but great to have otherwise! | |
2024-09-20 | James Laukkonen | Bloody annoying. Asks for too often for authentication, even after checking the box telling it not to check in that device. It denies my connection to dsCam, because I'm using it at an unusual hour - of course I am! I'm checking the security cameras to see who just pulled into my driveway after everyone is in bed! Horrid! |
