Don’t take it from us, hear it from our users.

I will pay literally any dollar amount for this. Please let me try it

Purchased, one of those QoL things that would add up over time. My use case, I try to keep my phone away from work table and the annoyance (and distraction) to bring the phone for 2FA is worth solving at the cost of roughly 2 coffees! (10 bucks)

Frequently asked questions

Got more questions? Shoot us an email at hello@getfaktor.com

How does it work?

Faktor works by listening for new 2FA codes on your Mac by hooking into iMessage, and when it detects a new code, it sends it to Google Chrome via our Chrome extension. When you are on a website that requires a 2FA code, Faktor will autocomplete the code for you.

Why isn't Faktor free?

We spent hours reverse-engineering iMessage to get this to work, and why not support a small company making your life easier and more productive?

Why do Faktor need full disk access?

Faktor needs full disk to access the private library folder on your Mac, where the iMessages are stored. We are working on avoiding this, but for now, this is the way.

Does Faktor send my text messages to servers/services?

Nope, Faktor does not send your text messages or data to any servers or external services. Everything runs locally.

What platforms do you support?

Faktor works with iOS devices and macOS 13 and up.

Which browsers does Faktor work with?

Faktor works with Google Chrome and Arc. Other Chromium-based browsers might work.
