What the Backup Code Storage Planner – Local & Private does

Choose where to store recovery codes without creating one point of failure. It is designed for users setting up MFA or passkeys. The tool runs in the browser and does not require an account.

Inputs and output

You control household, device and physical-storage options. The result is a separated storage plan. Generated values appear only after the browser processes the selected options; they are not intentionally inserted into the URL or analytics events.

Use it safely

  1. Confirm that the tool matches the receiving system’s real requirement.
  2. Generate or assess the value only on a device you trust.
  3. Save sensitive output directly in a password manager or secrets manager.
  4. Test the new credential before ending the last trusted session.
  5. Remove temporary clipboard or file copies when practical.
Important limitation.

A screenshot stored on the same phone is not a resilient backup.

What this tool cannot prove

The Backup Code Storage Planner – Local & Private cannot guarantee that an account, application or device will remain secure. Phishing, malware, weak recovery settings, excessive permissions and password reuse can defeat a strong generated value. Use stronger authentication and review recovery paths for important accounts.

Practical example

Suppose you are using this tool for users setting up MFA or passkeys. First document the system’s accepted format, then use the tool to produce or assess a candidate. Save the final value in the correct protected location and record who is responsible for rotation or recovery. Do not send the result through an unverified support message.
