QR and set up key support

[claybiockiller]

Dear Toby,

Do you have any plan for introducing QR and set up key support (as inport method)?

Hey @claybiockiller

There's already functionality to view a QR code for a TOTP. You can access it from the kebab menu; is this what you were requesting?

I'm not certain I understand what you mean by "set up key support as import method", are you able to explain in more detail?

Thanks :)

Hey @claybiockiller :)

I've been thinking about your request. If I understand correctly, you'd like the ability for the app to be able to scan QR codes from other devices and set up 2FA config from that QR code?

If I have understood your request correctly then unfortunately I don't wish to implement this.
The reason for my decision is that this website/app is only supposed to be used by developers/testers while they're testing their 2FA implementations and as such, it does not store the 2FA secrets securely.
If I implemented this feature then there'd be nothing stopping normal users from storing their actual 2FA secrets in this website/app - which isn't a good idea.

By keeping the app how it is now, I decrease the chances that someone uses it with real credentials.

That being said, if I've misunderstood your request then please reply with further explanation. Thanks!
