Authenticator app missing from store?

Hi,

I restored my Lumia 650 and cannot find the authenticator app on the phone or in the store? Has it been pulled?

It appears it's there in the store, no idea why it wasn't restored to my phone. You just don't see it if you search for "auth" or "authentication". You'll see a lot other 3 party tools, some of them even claiming to generate 2 factor authentication codes.

You'll find it if you search for "authenticator". Bing is a really good search engine, the one in the Windows Store is really bad and always has been, why?
