Is Web2FA - Authenticator safe?
Web2FA - Authenticator stores user-selected otpauth QR secrets from any website in Chrome sync storage.
When you use the extension to scan or add an otpauth QR code from an http or https page, it decodes the QR content and saves a new account record in chrome.storage.sync. That saved record includes the token secret along with details such as issuer, username, algorithm, digits, and period.
