I currently use Google Auth as my 2FA method for my Jagex Account but I want to use a different app because I don't want these codes to be backed up in the cloud. How do I do that? Do I have to re-enable the default 2FA method (e-mail), disable auth and then re-enable with the new app?
External link →If you'd like to switch your authenticator app, you were correct in your assumption :)
you need to do the following:
- enable email 2FA
- disable auth 2FA
- re-enable auth 2FA with your preferred authenticator
Although from your message I think you're concerned about the back-up codes being saved to the cloud, these back up codes aren't saved within your authenticator, but they will be saved wherever you chose to download/copy them to.
I would recommend having cloud-back up for your authenticator though, as it protects against losing or breaking your phone!
