Hi,
Starting July 2025, the autofill feature in Authenticator will stop working, and from August 2025, passwords will no longer be accessible in Authenticator.
I didn't collect the passwords to store them in a password manager. Is there a way to collect them from a backup?
best regards

I thought my biometric info was stored in the cloud to help make things easy to log back in bud no it was attached to apple keys so now I lost all of my data and third party accounts attached to it. I asked for help bud not even a phone call to MS cant help I suggest anyone using this app to be cautious cause in worst cases I lost compleet access to all my data.
