PSA, don't use Microsoft authenticator. It's easy to accidentally wipe your cloud backup and lose all your authenticator codes when switching devices

Is there actually any way to export the secrets from MS authenticator? I've been wanting to move them to something like bitwarden but it's gonna take ages if I have to reset all ~50

They provide "Cloud Backups".

Take the time, move them 5 a day. Better than loosing them forever

Yeah I suppose that's the best solution, I'm just a little impatient lol
