ntroducing Faktor, a new MacOS app that gives you one of Apple's most loved features from Safari and iOS: Grabs 2FA security codes from your iPhone and autofills them in Google Chrome on your Mac

Hi Hunters 👋 Kenneth here. As a loyal Chrome user, I was frustrated that one of Apple's most loved features from Safari and iOS wasn't available in Chrome. So, I built Faktor—a tool that grabs 2FA security codes from your iPhone and autofills them in Google Chrome on your Mac. Faktor is a native macOS app with a small Chrome extension, and once you install Faktor its easy to forget that this functionality isn't native to Chrome. Enjoy!

@auchenberg hats off to the team! 🎉 What has been the biggest surprise during development?

@kjosephabraham Figure out how the internals of iMessage work 😅

@auchenberg Congratulations on the launch! It is impressive that everything is local and you didnt need a backend for this magic - you could've probably done it easier if you had a server/serverless function, but I love that you decided to do it properly! Do you actually have a demo or something, like turning off WIFI on your phone and laptop and still being able to autofill the code from sms? :)

Faktor sounds fantastic! Bringing Safari's 2FA autofill to Chrome is a game-changer for Mac users.

Fits in so well I forgot I have it installed, despite using it every day
