Bitwarden Authenticator is a standalone app that is available for everyone, even non-Bitwarden customers.

In its current release, Bitwarden Authenticator generates time-based one-time passwords (TOTP) for users who want to add an extra layer of 2FA security to their logins.

There is a comprehensive roadmap planned with additional functionality.

Available for iOS and Android

Reading these comments, it feels like Aegis became the standard without me noticing.

Reading these comments I feel like I'm completely out of the loop because I've never even heard of Aegis

It doesn't get a whole lot of attention but it's the most mature open source authenticator app and one of the first ones you would find in fdroid. With that said, there's nothing really standout about it or its features, it just works.

interesting. what makes it special? i'm assuming it's just like any other TOTP client?

Someone answered this for me. It's just that it's open source. If that matters to you, there you go.
