If proprietary app is better and more robust I am willing to try it and assess it myself.

I see aegis supports automatic backups. I don't see it explicitly saying 'encrypted' backups though I too use andOTP but didn't realize it's not regularly maintained. I may check out aegis as it does support import from andOTP

Followup. Aegis does support encrypted backup. I had to do an unencrypted backup in andOTP so Aegis could import. Easy stuff

Edit: automatic backup doesn't encrypt? Or I am having trouble setting up

automatic backup doesn’t encrypt?

It does for me. Are you sure that your backup really isn't encrypted? Look in the JSON backup file, all your vault data should be encrypted and stored in one single long base64 encoded string with key name "db". Is that not so for you?

I just did an en encrypted backup from andOTP to the local filesystem and successfully imported it in Aegis. It worked flawlessly. Just in case someone else is reading this and is hesitant about how to migrate from andOTP to Aegis.
