According to this article: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/account-billing/common-questions-about-the-microsoft-authenticator-app-12d283d1-bcef-4875-9ae5-ac360e2945dd The Microsoft Authenticator app is being discontinued on Apple Watch. I find this very disappointing. I used it many times per day. Yes, it was a bit buggy and unreliable, but it sure was better than picking up my phone every time! Please keep supporting the Watch app!79KViews26likes41CommentsAdd filters/ grouping to microsoft authenticator app accounts
Hello! Hope you are all well! I would like to see filters of personal/ Work and school accounts or by domain. Or even the ability to organise accounts manually into groups. Currently have a long list of personal accounts and work account.8.6KViews8likes10CommentsSFB online Client Sign in and Authentication Deep Dive ;Part 1

Hi, in the documentation for https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/app-provisioning/use-scim-to-provision-users-and-groups#handling-endpoint-authentication, two methods are given: 1) a "long-lived token" (i.e. a secret key that has to be pasted in-clear by the admin) 2) "Microsoft Entra bearer token" - similar to other services (e.g. callbacks for MS Teams bots), Microsoft sign the outgoing calls, and the app being provisioned can validate them against Microsoft's public keys To me, option (2) is by far the best - each message is signed individually, there is no manual handling of secrets etc. As said in the documentation - "Apps that use Microsoft Entra ID as an identity provider can validate this Microsoft Entra ID-issued token." - great! So why on earth does it then say "The token generated by the Microsoft Entra ID should only be used for testing. It shouldn't be used in production environments." ? Why not? The whole system of Entra bearer tokens is only for test? And production should go back to secret keys, with all the problems they have? It doesn't seem right.. What am I missing here?145Views7likes0CommentsMicrosoft Authenticator UserVoice or Suggestion/Feedback ??
Where does one go to submit a feature request for Microsoft Authenticator? At this point I have > 50 entries in the Authenticator and scrolling through the list to find something is painful and slow. What is sorely missing is a keyword search function to locate any MFA listing within your app. After you authenticate with your Face, Finger, or whatever...at the top of the window there should be a search field and this field should be a "CONTAINS" search. Hopefully someone that can take this back to the team at Microsoft is reading!4.7KViews7likes5CommentsWindows Hello for Business 0x80090010 NTE_PERM
Hi all, I'm encountering an issue with Windows Hello for Business on the latest version of Windows (July 2025 update). The setup process fails during initialisation, and no biometric or PIN options are being provisioned for the user. Environment: Windows version: 11 24H2 Enterprise (latest update) Deployment mode: Hybrid Cloud Trust Hybrid joined devices Symptoms: Users are prompted to set up WHfB but the process fails at the last step with error 0x80090010 Users who already have WHfB authentication methods created can successfully login Event ID 311 & 303 in the User Device Registration logs Screenshots: Troubleshooting so far: Unjoined and rejoined to Entra ID Granted modify permissions on folder in which NGC container would be created Rolled back to June 2025 update (this worked) So it seems like this is caused or related to the latest Windows Update, which is rather unfortunate for us as we are just beginning to rollout WHfB for our organisation. I'm posting here to raise awareness of the issue, if there is a more appropriate place to post then please suggest.Solved12KViews6likes17Comments
