Proton Authenticator Export Codes | Is It Possible?

☕ If this video helped you, consider supporting me by buying me a coffee: https://coff.ee/bimalbasnet If you're wondering whether it's possible to export your 2FA codes from Proton Authenticator, the answer is yes — but it's done through the app’s encrypted backup system rather than a direct export to a plain file or QR code. Proton Authenticator allows users to securely back up their authentication entries, and this backup file effectively serves as your export, which can be transferred and restored on another device. To export your codes, open the Proton Authenticator app and tap the gear icon in the top right corner to access the settings. Under the 'Backup' section, you can enable automatic or manual backups. When turning on the backup feature, the app will prompt you to select a local folder or storage location on your device. This backup is encrypted and contains all your saved 2FA codes. Proton uses secure, zero-access encryption to protect this data, ensuring it cannot be read by anyone — not even Proton. Once the backup is created, you can manually transfer the encrypted backup folder to another device — for example, by using a secure cloud service, a USB cable, or any file transfer method you trust. On the new device, install Proton Authenticator and choose the option to 'Import from Proton Authenticator' during the setup. Then, point it to the backup file you previously exported. This will restore all your 2FA entries exactly as they were on the original device. Keep in mind that if this backup is lost or corrupted, you won’t be able to recover your codes. It's critical to store the backup in a safe, secure location — and avoid modifying it manually.
