Editor's Overview

FreeOTP is a password & 2fa application developed by F-Droid Open Source, packaged as a single Android APK of version 2.0 weighing in at 8.91 MB. The package targets Android 4.1+ and above. Below you'll find the publisher's own description, a quick spec sheet, and a short buyer-beware checklist so you know exactly what you're installing before tapping download.

Install Checklist

  1. Only download through the button on this page — never from third-party mirrors or shortened links, which are the most common way malware spreads.
  2. File size is a light 8.91 MB, so it installs quickly even on modest connections.
  3. This build is signed by "F-Droid Open Source" — always verify the developer name matches what's listed on the app's official store page before installing an update.
  4. After install, Android may prompt you to allow "Install from unknown sources" — approve only this one install, then revoke the permission in Settings > Apps > Special access.
  5. We link directly to the APK file or the publisher's repository; we do not modify the binary. Always run a virus scan after any sideloaded install.

About this app

NOTE: Users reported issues with the backup & restore functionality, please test this whenever you install the app on a new device.

FreeOTP is a two-factor authentication (2FA) application for systems utilizing
one-time password protocols (OTP). Tokens can be added easily by scanning a
QR-code or by manually entering in the token configuration.

FreeOTP implements open standards. This means that no proprietary server-side
component is necessary: use any server-side component that implements these
standards - for example FreeIPA, which uses TOTP. Any
standards-compliant implementation will work. Currently, FreeOTP provides
implementations of HOTP (RFC 4226) and TOTP (RFC 6238).

Frequently Asked Questions

Is FreeOTP free to download?
Yes. The APK file linked from this page is free. The developer may offer in-app purchases once installed, but obtaining the installer itself costs nothing.

What Android version does FreeOTP require?
Android 4.1+ or newer. Installing on older devices may cause crashes or refuse to install.

Is FreeOTP safe to install?
We link to the exact APK published by F-Droid Open Source. We do not modify the file. Still, as with any sideloaded app, scan it with a reputable antivirus before opening it, and only grant permissions the app genuinely needs.

How do I update FreeOTP?
Install the newer version on top of the old one — Android will keep your data. If the signature differs, uninstall first (you may lose local progress).

Why is the app not installing?
Common causes: not enough storage, an older Android version than 4.1+, or a conflicting build already installed. Free up space, check your OS version, and uninstall any previous copy before retrying.
