Two-factor authentication without a personal phone
Employees don't want work 2FA on their personal phones, and companies shouldn't want critical logins tied to a device they don't control. 2fashare keeps TOTP secrets in a shared workspace and puts the live codes in the browser.
Codes in the browser
2fashare generates live TOTP codes on any signed-in device - laptop, desktop, or phone. No authenticator app required.
Company-owned, not phone-owned
Secrets live in your workspace, not on an employee's personal device. Access follows the role, not the phone.
Nothing to install
No app store, no MDM enrollment, no second device to hand out. New teammates get access with an invite.
Offboard without lockouts
When someone leaves, they can't take the authenticator with them. Remove the member; every secret stays with the company.
Work 2FA doesn't belong on a personal phone
The default 2FA setup quietly assumes one account, one person, one phone. For company accounts that assumption fails twice: employees are asked to enroll personal devices they'd rather keep separate, and the business ends up with mission-critical access hinging on a phone it doesn't own. One lost device or one departure, and you're digging for recovery codes.
2fashare breaks the dependency. TOTP secrets are stored once, encrypted, in a workspace the company controls. The live codes render in the browser for exactly the people who should see them, on whatever device they're signed in from. Personal phones stay personal, and access outlives any single device or employee.
Common questions
Can I use 2FA without an authenticator app on my phone?+
Yes. TOTP is an open standard, not a phone feature - anything that holds the secret can generate the code. 2fashare stores the secret in your team workspace and shows the live rotating code in the browser on any device you're signed in to.
What if employees don't want work 2FA on their personal phones?+
That's a reasonable line to draw, and you shouldn't have to fight it. Put the 2FA for work accounts in 2fashare instead: employees get codes in the browser at work, and their personal devices stay personal.
Is SMS 2FA a good alternative for a company account?+
No. SMS codes go to a single number, can't be shared with a team, and are vulnerable to SIM-swap attacks. App-style TOTP codes stored in a controlled, auditable workspace are both safer and actually shareable.
What happens if the phone holding our authenticator is lost?+
In a one-phone setup, you're locked out and hunting for recovery codes. With 2fashare nothing happens - the secret lives in the workspace, so the team keeps generating codes from any browser while the lost device is replaced.
