Tell HN: Google Authenticator lost all of my codes

Hi HN, Today I opened Google Authenticator and found all of my codes were gone. Naturally I neglected to back them up, and I'm permanently locked out of some of my accounts. You know what they say about being dumb, Disaster Usually Motivates Backups. I assume this was triggered by an automatic update of the app, so I wanted to warn people who might get burned by the same issue.
