Feature request: Show the next 2FA code aswell

Hello @BKrnk! 👋

Thank you for the suggestion! I'd like to learn more about the scenarios where the one-time password is expiring before you're able to use it. Are you filling the one-time password into a website open in Safari? Or into a different iOS app?

If you're filling into a website in Safari then 1Password for Safari can fill the one-time password for you: Get to know 1Password for Safari on your iPhone or iPad

And if you're signing into another app then you can have 1Password automatically copy the one-time password to your clipboard when you fill the username and password:

1. Open and unlock 1Password 8.
2. Tap the icon for your account or collection at the top left and choose Settings.
3. Tap AutoFill.
4. Turn on "Copy One-Time Passwords".
5. Go back to Settings.
6. Tap Notifications.
7. Turn on "One-Time Passwords".

Then fill a username/password into the app again. You should see a notification that 1Password has copied the one-time password to your clipboard. You can then paste the one-time password into the app.

Let me know if either of those won't work for you.

Hello @1P_Dave - thank you for answering.
I need to fill the 2FA in another app - for example PayPal.

The Safari extension works in most of the cases fine. Just on websites like aliexpress the developer of the website broke the input field (I guess) and inserting a code result into all numbers goes into the first field and the rest stays empty BUT this is not a problem of 1P. :)

@BKrnk

Thanks for the reply. Are you able to paste your 2FA one-time password into the PayPal app after trying the steps in my previous reply?

I don't have an Aliexpress account and would like to learn more about the situation. Are you pasting the one-time password into the Aliexpress website when this issue occurs? Or filling it using 1Password for Safari?

@1P_Dave - jep. Pasting the code into the PayPal App is working fine.

I use the Aliexpress App. The app prompts you with an field where you need to paste the code - but the app is really bad designed. Mean you select the first input field and paste the 2FA. And guess what - all digits lands in the first field. Just bad app design from them. 😅

@BKrnk

Thanks for clarifying. The issue with the Aliexpress app would indeed need to be addressed by their development team since 1Password isn't involved with the paste operation. I recommend reporting it to them and hopefully they can fix it in a future update.

Let me know if there's anything else that I can help you with. 🙂

@1P_Dave I will do this. Can you add my feature request to your list and maybe discuss it with your colleagues? (Showing in the next 2FA code in your app?)

@BKrnk

Done! Thank you for the feature request! 🙂

One last thing: some websites do have a grace period where the one-time password will work for longer than it's displayed expiry time. I wanted to mention it in case this helps in some cases.
