Google Authenticator Fails

[anon(5519702)]

Has anyone else got problems with the Google Authenticator app not working on the G3? When trying to set up the app, it fails with stating "Unfortunately, Authenticator has stopped." And that's it, nothing else happens. Are the 3rd part apps available on the Play Store safe/secure to use for this purpose?

Thanks
Steve

Hi Steve

I used this to sort the problem out - it worked for me.

Perfect, thanks Steve.
Looks like it was purely because you can only have Authenticator set up on a single device.

Thanks again.
