Backups:
To keep your account information as secure as possible andOTP only stores it in encrypted data files. There are two methods of encryption which can be used: the Android KeyStore or a Password / PIN.
The KeyStore is a system component of Android for securely storing cryptographic keys, the advantage of this approach is that the key is kept separate from the apps data and, as a bonus, can be backed by hardware cryptography (if your device supports this). However, due to that separation, backups with 3rd-party apps like Titanium Backup can not be used if this method is chosen. Such apps only backup the encrypted data files and not the encryption key, which renders them useless. In this case you will have to rely on the internal backup functions provided by andOTP!
The KeyStore is known to cause a lot of problems, so please only use it if you absolutely have to and know what you are doing. In that case please make sure to make regular backups in case something goes wrong. It is always recommended to use a password or PIN instead!
Beta testing:
If you found a bug during beta testing, please submit your feedback directly on Github (https://github.com/andOTP/andOTP/issues) because for some reason I don't always get notified when new beta feedback is submitted on the Google Play Store.
Open source:
This app is fully open source (licenses under the MIT license), you can check out the source on GitHub: https://github.com/andOTP/andOTP
andOTP is a fork of the great OTP Authenticator app written by Bruno Bierbaumer, which has sadly been inactive for a while. All credit for the original version goes to Bruno. It has since been removed from Google Play, but you can still find the code of his app here: https://github.com/0xbb/otp-authenticator

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
