Salesforce Authenticator4.8.0 - App Store

Salesforce Authenticator adds an extra layer of security for your online accounts with multi-factor authentication (also known as two-factor authentication). With Salesforce Authenticator, you use your mobile device to verify your identity when logging in to your account or performing critical actions. The app sends you a push notification, and you approve or deny the activity with just a tap. For even more convenience, Salesforce Authenticator can use your mobile device’s location services to automatically approve account activity that you trust. The app also provides one-time verification codes for use while you’re offline or have low connectivity.

Use Salesforce Authenticator to secure all your online accounts that support time-based one-time passwords (TOTP). Any service that allows multi-factor authentication using an “Authenticator app” is compatible with Salesforce Authenticator.

Location Data & Privacy
If you enable location-based automation in Salesforce Authenticator, rest assured that Salesforce never tracks your location or shares it with anyone. Location data is stored securely on your mobile device, never in the cloud. You can delete all location data from your device or turn off location services at any time. Learn more about how the app uses location data in Salesforce Help.

Battery Usage
Rather than getting precise location updates, Salesforce Authenticator only receives updates when you enter or leave the approximate area, or “geofence,” of a location that you trust. By minimizing the frequency of location updates, Salesforce Authenticator conserves your mobile device’s battery life. To reduce battery usage even more, you can turn off location services and stop automating your activity.

We made automation easier than ever.

The automation toggle includes an Einstein icon that is blue when automation is on and gray when automation is off.

- Our app icon has a fresh new look. To stand out from other authenticator apps, our new icon features the Salesforce logo.
- Disruptions happen. Our revamped account transfer experience is here to help. Whether you change your device or delete and reinstall the app, it’s easier than ever to get back on track. To successfully transfer accounts, ensure that you back them up. 4.4.0 08/15/2024 We fixed some bugs. 4.3.1 05/22/2024 - We fine-tuned in-app notifications to clarify the criteria for activating backups. To enable backups, you must have at least one connected account that’s associated with Salesforce, such as Salesforce.com, Heroku, MuleSoft, Marketing Cloud (including Intelligence), Commerce Cloud, Quip, and Tableau. But if you’re using third-party accounts that require a 6-digit time-based one-time password (TOTP) for login, you can’t enable backups.
- We fixed some bugs. 4.3.0 05/09/2024 - Get Notifications When You’re in Focus Mode: To make sure you don’t miss push notifications, they’re now time-sensitive so that you can see them even when you’re in Focus mode. To use this feature, enable push notifications and turn on time-sensitive notifications.
- Search Across Connected Accounts: Too many connected accounts to keep track of? To find accounts more easily, search across your connected accounts based on the username or the service you’re trying to access. For example, search for all of your accounts connected to MuleSoft. This feature is available when you have more than one connected account.
- We improved the experience for submitting app feedback and fixed some bugs. 4.2.0 04/08/2024 - We added clarifications about how the Salesforce Authenticator app uses your location data and protects your privacy.
