Does pwSafe support TOTP (Time-based one-time password)? – Huvisoft Help Center

Yes, pwSafe supports TOTP.

TOTP is used by many online services to provide multi-factor authentication. In addition to entering a password, you need to supply a code that changes every 30 seconds.

Here is the current status of the implementation, specified by platform:

	iOS	macOS
Password Safe core upgrade	10.3.0	10.3.1
Show OTP codes for entry	10.3.2	10.3.3
Copy OTP code (iOS: on tap, macOS: context menu and keyboard shortcut)	10.3.2	10.3.3
UI to show QR code	11.0.10	11.0.10
UI to enter new shared secret	10.5.0	10.5.3
UI to scan QR code	10.5.0	N/A
Integrate in iOS QR scanner		N/A
Integrate in AutoFill	11.0.10	11.0.5

The One-Time Password field may appear hidden. This occurs because the One-Time Password field is only displayed when an entry in the database contains One-Time Password information.

Note: If you have not upgraded to v11 yet, make sure to enable the New Entry Layout for full One-Time Password support!

How to add a One-Time Password

To add a One-Time Password to an existing entry, open the entry details and tap/click the Edit button. Then use the '+' button to add the One-Time Password field to the entry. You can provide the One-Time Password in two different ways

by scanning a QR code (iOS only)
by entering the shared secret

The One-Time Password will now be displayed in the entry

Exporting

You can transfer a One-Time Password to another application (like Google Authenticator) by opening the context menu of the One-Time Password: on iOS long-press the One-Time Password, on macOS use the right mouse button.

Note: only use this option when you want to manage your One-Time Password with another app. To use the One-Time Password to authenticate, simply single tap/click the One-Time Password to copy the current authentication code to the clipboard. Or even more convenient: use AutoFill to allow seamless integration in Safari.
