I don't use any of the "normal" apps.

TOTP is trivial to implement in a few dozen lines of Python code:
https://github.com/mbuesch/pwman/blob/master/libpwman/otp.py

You can quickly write an authenticator with any additional access control and security guarantees that you want. (or just use mine ;-)

And an attacker probably won't know that it's there, if you wrote it by yourself.
