Authy Desktop client will be discontinued from August 2024 (self.privacy)

Twillio just announced they're discontinuing the Desktop version of their popular Two Factor Authentication client. Their proposed solution is for users to move to the mobile app, which of course doesn't fulfill the use case of people who explicitly chose Authy because it had a desktop client.

If you use Authy and depend on the Desktop client you will have to consider migrating to something else.

If my memory serves me right, they do a bunch of application integrations for SMS and Phone calls.
