Microsoft Authenticator is now available for download from Windows Store for Windows 10 Mobile devices. Soon, the app will have a cool feature that you can use to unlock your Windows 10 PC over Bluetooth without entering a password. Just open the app and tap on a nearby computer. For now, it works for 2-factor authentication only.

This app still has its limitations.

Future versions will include support for Microsoft account, a sign-in solution for browsers and VPNs, one-time passcode generation, and MFA approval through notifications.

Download it here from Windows Store. Check out our early look at this app here.
