Managing codes

Modified on Tue, Sep 8 at 3:20 PM

The Codes list shows all the authentication codes saved on your phone. From this list you can add, edit, copy, pin, move, and delete codes.

Add a code

Press Menu and select Scan Code to add a code by scanning its QR setup code with the camera, or select Add Code to enter it manually. When adding manually, enter the service name and secret key, then press Menu>Save. If a code needs different settings, such as HOTP instead of TOTP, a different number of digits, or a custom time period, open Advanced settings before saving.

Copy a code

Select a code from the list and press Copy Code to copy it, ready to paste in wherever you're signing in.

Edit a code

Select a code, press Menu, and choose Edit to change its name or settings.

Pin a code

Select a code, press Menu, and choose Pin To Top to keep it at the top of the list. Choose Unpin to remove it again.

Move a code

If you have a sync account connected, select a code, press Menu, and choose Move to... to move it between This phone and the connected account.

Delete a code

Select a code, press Menu, and choose Delete. Confirm the deletion when prompted. Once a code is deleted you will need to set it up again with the original service to get a new one.
