AndOTP is great. Its free and had simple and easy encrypted backups. I love how its timer counts down, not up like some others and highlights the token in red so you know you need to hustle or wait.
A lot of password managers support 2fa now. I use Enpass because I got a lifetime license a long time ago (it’s also available to people with Google Play pass), but I know some other popular options have it too.
The whole point of 2FA is to keep the second factor separate from the first. If you store both in the same password manager app that defeats the entire point of 2FA.
It still protects you from your passwords being compromised in any way except through a compromise of the password manager itself. Yes, it’s worse than keeping them separate, but it’s also still much better than not having 2fa at all.
I only switched to keepass due to the fact that nothing seems to support a desktop application like authy did. Not everyone keeps a phone on them 24/7. If they don’t want that risk they would allow desktop apps. least in my opinion
What are some good multi-platform alternatives/ replacements?
I switched to Aegis
I switched to Aegis when google authenticator didn’t allow exports. It’s simple and it works.
Wait, google auth doesnt allow exports? For me it dies…? Am I missing something…?
It allows exports but only is a stupid QR-code based format.
Aaahh, you mean that. Yeah, it’s annoying.
It does now–it didn’t in the past.
It still does (last time I checked less than two weeks ago) it is just annoying and involves qr codes
Bitwarden or Proton Pass.
Duo, Aegis, Bitwarden, Proton.
Keepass. Standalone FOSS apps for desktop/phone. Has OTP support.
Password/tokens are stored in a small encrypted db file you can copy/paste anywhere you need it. Has hundreds of plugins to do various things.
Use something like syncthing/nextcloud/onedrive to keep the file in sync across devices.
Along with others already mentioned, 1Password can support 2fa.
andOTP + bitwarden for me

It seems I cannot install it because the app is too old for Android 14…
That’s odd, I’m on Android 14 and have andOTP installed.
