Microsoft Authenticator has backup options but doesn't indicate if there is encryption which is concerning.

Also I burned myself by activating backups in the app and not realizing I had to activate it in system settings in iOS too (or something to that effect).

So I lost my 2-factors, luckily I had spares for most.
