I'm not familiar with it, but I'm sure it's fine.

Take care to ensure your password manager is not also in your phone. Otherwise you've effectively turned 2FA into 1FA because now everything an attacker needs to impersonate you is in the same physical device. A useful thought experiment is, if you left your phone in a pub, completely unlocked by accident, and the worst person possible happens to pick it up - what is the worst they could do and how long would it take for you to stop them?
