App-specific passwords 2 step authentication

Hello all,

When using Apple's 2 step authentication, some third-party applications need an app specific password to be created.

Can I use the same password for a specific app on different devices ?

For example, I use Fantastical on an iPad, an iPhone and a MacBook Air, all connected to the same iCloud account. Can I use the same app specific password on all these three devices for Fantastical?

Thanks

Yes you can use the same password, as long as it's for the same app.

Like the names says, it's an app specific password 😉
