Battle.net Authenticator for Negative User Reviews

Boycott BlizzardFreedom from tyranny for Hong Kong 🇭🇰🇭🇰🇭🇰.Version: 2.3.0

Change sign inI can’t sign in I don’t have my old phone number and I don’t have something to verify my account with. I can’t even get help.Version: 2.5.0

Roll into Battle.net appThe fact that this is a standalone app and not just rolled into the Bnet app in 2019 is a joke..Version: 2.3.0

Supports Human Rights AbusesThe company responsible for the development of this app has chosen to support authoritarian governments over its ethical responsibility in supporting freedom of expression. I am in the process of deleting all blizzard merchandise and software in my possession. Your support of blatant human right abuses to maintain access to Chinese markets is appalling and alarming..Version: 2.3.0

Why do you guys remove the notification option?There is never a notification push after I update it.Version: 2.3.0

I’m all for securing my accountBut initially my bag slots were locked behind this thing, now I can’t use group finder without this. Forced into something I already have and then when I actually use it, it doesn’t link with my account properly so I don’t get the bagslots and now can’t use group finder either..Version: 2.5.0

ArchangelThank you it’s very good protection for account ,the app is very fast and offers great functionality,the notification system and approvals work quickly..Version: 2.6.1

Hasn’t worked very wellThe extra bag space is nice, but the Authenticator might have worked once in about 20 tries over a couple weeks. It always ask for the code now and won’t let me log in, but the app just says no login request or error.Version: 2.4.1

Awful company that supports ChinaFree H O N G K O N G.Version: 2.3.0

UselessDoesn't allow you to sign-up through App unless its via Facebook. Probably only useful for playing their own developed games..Version: 2.2.4

Lost accountAbout two years ago I lost my battlenet account, whatever I try to recover it, it asks me for a serial number of an old pc, which I never had, I changed country so now I’m blocked..Version: 2.3.0

PainfulThis app dose not work same as over watch.Version: 2.5.0

Unable to loginAfter about 6 months of not having played WoW, (I made a concerted effort to disable my account) and that I had also cancelled my payment details with Blizzard. After seeing that I was still being charged on my credit card I tried logging into my account. I had to redownload the app onto my new iPhone 5. Was not able to login to Blizzard, was then unable to "remove" the authenticator, when logging in it always says "authenticator attached". Beware of this if you get a new device.....Version: 1.3.4

Lost synchLost the account synch, and now doesn't work..Version: 2.2.4

Very buggySince moving to the new home it never works and always errors each time. Not a good experience at all..Version: 2.6.1

Login / user experienceNew update made logging in a hassle, gotta close popups and and hope you can use the app as normal. Bad user experience.Version: 2.6.1

AuthenticatorGiven the amount of money for the service, I really wish that blizzard/battle.net simply had chat customer service or phone help. I simple chat could have saved over a month of trying to resolve my issue’s and I still can’t login.Totally frustrating!.Version: 2.6.1

App Crashes Unable to send requestApp has been working as it should when I try to access my accounts the app is unable to authenticate..Version: 2.4.1

Useless!Useless cause even after wasting time with authentication I’m not able to play games which cost me a lot! Blizzard - a costly bad joke!.Version: 2.5.0

Poor app qualityUseless.Version: 2.6.1

Don’t installWorst app ever made. Almost daily issues logging on since you need to provide access through the app when you login. Would rate less than 1 star if I could..Version: 2.5.0

Difficult sometimesTrying to log into account in Chrome, doesn’t wait long enough for cellphone Authenticator to transmit approval..Version: 2.5.0

Does not workDoes not work.Version: 2.5.0

Trash appNo notification at all even when I try to log in there’s nothing show up on my phone, and the code is too long not enough time..Version: 2.4.2

#BoycottBlizzard#FreeHK.Version: 2.3.0

Never worksAlways have an error with the request and enter the code manually.Version: 2.5.0

STOP.You force me to download this garbage, and now I sit stuck in a vortex of pain trying to log in - approving log in - log in accepted - and being sent back to a log in screen. Just to repeat a thousand times. Zero stars. Not a fan..Version: 2.5.0

Could be betterAllow app to start downloads on pc automatically sooon as the pc turns on and set it to warn you when games playable otherwise is good.Version: 2.2.4

UnhelpfulThe reason I even installed this app is because I don’t have access to my phone number and email that was associated with my account but this doesn’t accomplish this so can anyone help me..Version: 2.3.0

Poo appApp is poo, works like poo, doesnt come down, so its poo. Just poo..Version: 2.5.0

App won’t let you verifyWhen you go to Blizzard’s support site to request your data, they have disabled both SMS and this authenticator app as options to verify your identity. When you click their link to auth, it just says “denied” and “you are trying this too many times” (on your first try. They force you to send a picture of your government-issued photo ID instead. Why even offer the authentication option if it’s not “secure enough”? Anyways liberate Hong Kong, the revolution of our time..Version: 2.3.0

Can’t get past log in screenI’ve downloaded the app and tried to log in but couldn’t get past it.Version: 2.4.1

AwfulAbsolutely terrible, never works. Can’t even use the WoW companion app now, causes nothing but headaches. Not even worth the extra bag slots.Version: 2.4.1

Generating codesWouldn’t give automatically generated codes and blocks me from the game.Version: 2.4.0

Piece of CrapProbably coded by some poor intern, something as easy as putting in a DOB should not be that hard. Would give it 0 stars if i could. Great job blizz..Version: 2.5.0

Absolute pain to remove thisIn case you want to remove your Authenticator it is such a hard process. Wouldn’t recommend doing it in the first place.Version: 2.4.0

Request errorUseless, never works. Requests always result in error messages. Load of crap..Version: 2.3.0

Have to enter code manually everytimeThe app icon is a lock logo and the name of the app is "Authenticator". It could be anything for any service. Blizzard, brand your logo or name your app with a defining name and not something so generic. I know this is a harsh review because of something many would consider insignificant but i see this as a major design flaw. If all companies would use logos and names so generic for their apps we wouldnt recognize anything on our phones. Please review your app icon/name identity..Version: 2.2.4

Doesn’t work properlyI don’t even get my code sent to the phone number or email I have linked to my account..Version: 2.3.0

The worst implementation of a 2FA appLts just slower and more complicated than competing Authenticators such as Steams, harder to use as well. Also has tendencies to just not work sometimes and break..Version: 2.5.0

Freeze when setting upTrash app, in game keep asking download this app but app very poorly designed, freeze when settings up every time, wasting time over all..Version: 2.5.0

Customer support suksTrying get rid my this app which is linked to my old phone number which I had more than 5 years ago. Had to submit a ticket on the website, which takes them FOREVER to reply. Gave up, sign up with a new email..Version: 2.2.4

Good when it wants to be.Easy to use app until you don’t use it for months and it signs you out and now have to go through the painful submit a ticket to remove it.. I’m sick of doing this I’m guessing this has something to do with phone/app updates wiping login details off?.Version: 2.3.0

TerribleToday I had a security alert email from blizzard. So I took the necessary precautions and changed my account passwords and my email account password. I downloaded this app to enable extra security and it will not accept my password I just created. I have signed into it from 3 different browsers to make sure I am using the right password yet this dumb app still tells me I’m entering it wrong. I guess it’s slow to update to recent events. Thumbs down from me. Google Authenticator is much better and hassle free.Version: 2.4.1

Beware.Locked me out immediately and minimum response time from Blizzard is 24 hours..Version: 2.2.4

Execellent Security.This app will make your account so secure that even you won't be able to get into it! Download now to experience endless authentication loops and page refreshes!.Version: 2.4.1

Forced to have installed on deviceI wish battle.net allowed any two factor auth so I didnt need an entire app dedicated to it..Version: 2.3.0

Needs workIt doesn’t always give me a code when I need it..Version: 2.5.0

Doesn’t workDoesn’t work 91% of the time. Super annoying because it takes way more time than if you didn’t have it..Version: 2.4.1

Does not work I says enable iCloud KeychainThis app is not allowing me to log in my battle net It was working fine weeks ago and now not anymore.Version: 2.6.2

Couldn't even use the appIf you don't have access to the email associated with your Blizzard account, don't bother downloading because you won't be able to use it. Normally, Blizzard gives me the option to use email OR phone number (text) for 2-step verification; in this app it's EMAIL ONLY which doesn't work for me because again, I have no access to that old email address and they won't let you change it. Very frustrating..Version: 2.2.4

Doesn’t workEvery time I Authenticate it says error and I have to do it again even though Ive done it in the allocated time. Every single time so I have to spend 5-10 minutes trying to authenticate..Version: 2.4.1

Not greatCannot log into my battle account cause of the Authenticator.Version: 2.5.0

Blizzard is a scam!Do not get their Authenticator if you have to get it replaced they will absolutely scam you. My phone broke with Authenticator I’ve sent over 20 tickets in now, I’ve been charged 2 wow subscription for 4 months that I can’t cancel and my bank wants to charge me for to cancel, blizzard support just keeps sending me the same email saying they’ll fix it and for me to log in and guess what that REQUIRES MY AUTHENTICATOR, I’ve told them every ticket I can provide my ID or any information and they just keep sending the log in email. I am so sad I have been a customer of this company for over 2 decades and I will never play another one of their games. I am now having to drive to the city to close my bank altogether and get a new bank to resolve this issue. I will make my story known everywhere blizzard you seriously screwed up just to rip someone off a few months lol..Version: 2.5.0

HelpVery unreliable often needs multiple tries to work..Version: 2.3.0

BravoBlizzard, you outdone yourself. Recently I’ve got a new device and with that I’ve got a lot of issues with you. How hard can it be to log into my account without authentication you can ask, if you do it from your PC it will ask you to use this app, then you log in into your app and successfully fail to restore authentication from cloud chain. If you try to remove the authenticator from their web page it will ask you to use AUTHENTICATOR. Congratulations to most hated company on earth.Version: 2.5.0

Absolute rubbishIt’s the v most frustrating system I have ever used.Version: 2.6.4

RedundantAnother app to install for no good reason. Blizzard should just use open standards so that we can use more common authenticator apps like Google and Microsoft Authenticator..Version: 2.5.0

Works great, for the most partSometimes there is no notification on my phone when using the One touch button feature, even though my notifications are turned on..Version: 2.4.2

Prevents installation on PCUseless and unnecessary! Only used to get more personal information to sell. After handing over a lot of information to create and account this ‘Feature’ prevents the PC version from installing..Version: 2.4.0

GarbageYou follow the steps, and eventually the app fails. complete garbage. “security theater” that doesn’t work....Version: 2.4.2

AuthenticationWorst piece of crap ever ! Each time I need to use the authentication when I launch the app it tells me that I need to login to Battle.net and then the app asks me for a code lol . I have to use the manual feature to get in and play my latency ridden game ! So much fun!.Version: 2.6.1

Poor app could not useI tried to add my account always stuck at the phone number, I changed 3 phone number, invalid always, it’s a bug app. So disappointed.Version: 2.5.0

Blizzard rubbishMore Blizzard rubbish just like their games.Version: 2.5.0

Freedom for HongKong#FuckBlizzard, this company shows no human decency when it comes to making decisions #FreeHongKong.Version: 2.3.0

It’s just repeatedly broken for me.I’ve set this up multiple times now and each time it works for a week or two then breaks and locks me out of my account. Takes a day or more to get Blizzard to fix it each time. Sometimes they close the ticket before fixing it. It’s just a horrible pain to use. I had this some 13-14 years ago and it worked better back then..Version: 2.5.0

Not thrilled with the appObviously the App works as intended, to authenticate your account. With that said, it does get a little annoying when you have to authenticate your account a dozen times in a row on the same evening, for the same computer you’ve been playing on for months. It’s like... what the hey man??? Why???? It’s aggravating to say the least.Version: 2.5.0

Blizzard sucksI put my phone number in and I don’t get a message with the code.Version: 2.5.0

Would use it but…Their policy to not accept pre-paid phone numbers is ignorant at best. One of those things, I’m not changing my entire phone plan for one thing and one thing alone. My phone number, that I’ve had for over 7 years, has never been a problem on literally any service whatsoever, using it on everything from game accounts, to IRS filings… Activision-Blizzard is seemingly the only service I’ve come across during this time that maintains this policy. If you have a service like Metro, or some other pre-paid phone provider, don’t bother downloading this..Version: 2.5.0

Isssues with just connecting with your account.Put in the basic account info as the first step and the app just stuttered and did not progress to the next step. this definitely will not save anyone's account if you cannot even get to the second step..Version: 2.5.0

TerribleAbsolutely aweful. Crashes all the time. Won’t let me authenticate. Restricted in game activities without it. Terrible.Version: 2.5.0

NotificationsDoesn’t handle transferring to a new device and understanding it needs to re-register with Apple for notifications..Version: 2.5.0

For functions?This app is handy, but why can't bizzard just add some other functions into it, like contacting battle net friends through this? Check your battle net profile?.Version: 2.0.1

TerribleDoesn’t work at all.Version: 2.5.0

Fix this, or stop requiring it to change title in group finder.EVERYTIME I try to login to battlement from a browser, before I can accept the login request, it backs me out to the username/password input page over and over again. I’ve spoke to multiple people who have the same issue. Please fix it. Or don’t force us to use it in order to edit group names in group finder. Very disappointed in you blizzard. You guys needed to fix this ages ago..Version: 2.5.0

1 StarLiterally everytime I attempt a log in and then asked to go to app for the authentication nothing appears..Version: 2.5.0

“Request error”Broken..Version: 2.6.1

Needs workJust like wow it needs attention,.Version: 2.5.0

Terrible appBarley works half the time so I’m not surprise that blizzard has gone completely downhill supporting genocide! Bad app bad company. Hand in hand..Version: 2.3.0

Can’t even enter phone numberSays there’s a problem every time I try and use my phone number, can’t even add it my number to the website either.Version: 2.4.1

Do. Better.Logged me out of battle net wouldn’t give me a code barely let me put in my date of birth who designed this and what was wrong with my cell? Shame on Blizzard for making this needlessly complicated. Cancelling because this is a game; not my job..Version: 2.5.0

Absolutely GarbageOverwatch 2 needs me to get the app but it doesn’t even load, and it needs me to add a phone number to authenticate it however I created and account when younger using this phone number however have forgotten the account but I can’t use the same phone number so I needed to get this as an Authenticator. Truly horrible way of setting things up.Version: 2.5.0

One button only works for AuthenticatorThe one button access is never an option logging into my games, it’s only ever worked with website stuff and Authenticator..Version: 2.3.0

TrashTrash app barely works really wish i didn't need to use it..Version: 2.4.1

Someone is not thinkingThis app is discontinued but trying to log into my account and it wont let me in unless i press the accept buttom from this app. You are reaching an all new low blizzard! Come on im sure someone has atleast has half a brain up there to fix his stupid problem!! Another problem blizzard has created with this foolishness is i have 5 diablo 2 res accounts an i can only use my 1 cell number for one account on the new battle net app. Yall are such morons!!!.Version: 2.6.4

HeyThanks for Diablo immortal.Version: 2.5.0

Fix your broken system and have some customer serviceForcing everyone to link their phone number real genius if it actually worked. I have done everything listed from support still don't work. Because simply cant add my phone number so i can play my wife no issue. Literally have the same phone service. How about you actually have someone answer the tickets..Version: 2.5.0

RubbishWhy do I have to use this to add info in game. Stupid system.Version: 2.5.0

Needs improvementThis is a great app but it really needs improvement. With the latest changes to ios the app needs to add notification settings. It's very annoying to have to keep opening the app just to approve all the time. I used to be able to just tap approve from the notification centre or even approve straight from my apple watch, however this is no longer possible. This really needs improvement..Version: 2.4.2
