I have just got a new phone and have set up Google Authenticator to give me 2FA codes for 1Password but the codes don’t work when I use them in this screen. I am forced to say authenticate later each time it pops up

Hey there @rfranke

Double-check your iPhone's system clock is accurate by going to https://time.is/ – most (almost all) two-factor authentication errors we see are because of the system clock.

If your iPhone's clock is accurate, try signing in to 1Password.com in a Private or Incognito window in your browser on your computer, using a one-time password from Google Authenticator.

See how those things go and let me know – I'll be able to get you to the right help if needs be. :)

It’s just the iOS app that’s upset with me

@rfranke

If you're sure that your iPhone's date and time are accurate then I'd like to ask you to create a diagnostics report from the iPhone:

Sending Diagnostics Reports (iOS)

Attach the diagnostics to an email message addressed to support+forum@1password.com.

With your email please include:

The report will be in zip format. Please send the entire file.

You should receive an automated reply from our BitBot assistant with a Support ID number. Please post that number here. Thanks very much!
