Microsoft Authenticator keeps evolving and getting more and more features, which is is a good thing for all those committed to the Microsoft ecosystem, especially because it's becoming a more advanced password manager overall.

And since Microsoft also aims for any password managing future, the Authenticator app is regularly updated with new capabilities, and also the latest beta build for Android devices brings another welcome feature for users.

Specifically, Android users are now able to sync the passwords they held in Microsoft Edge on their PCs, so theoretically, exactly the same passwords are now available virtually everywhere you go.

For now, however, it's vital that you keep in mind this feature is only available included in the latest beta, so Microsoft just wants to collect additional feedback before letting it go to everyone.

Microsoft Authenticator mobile app

Microsoft itself is insisting on while using Authenticator app in excess of just Microsoft accounts.

"You can also add multiple accounts for your app, including non-Microsoft accounts like LinkedIn, Github, Amazon, Dropbox, Google, Facebook, and more. Since the app supports the industry standard for time based one time passwords (TOTP), you can secure all your online accounts. Simply enable two factor authentication (2FA) on all of your accounts. Then, whenever you register, you'll provide your username and password as always. Finally, you'll go into the one time password (OTP) supplied by the Microsoft Authenticator app," the organization explains in the description of its Android client.

In terms of Microsoft Edge, the integration obviously is useful, as this is the new default browser on Windows 10, and lots of users are already sticking with it on their own PCs.

The brand new Microsoft Edge is dependant on Chromium, the same engine powering Google Chrome, and is now available not just on Windows 10, but also on Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, macOS, and Linux.
