2fa question

Hello telUK! 👋

Thank you for the questions! When you create your 1Password account, an item containing your account's email address and account password will be saved to your account. This item is end-to-end encrypted, as all of your items are, and it's safe to keep the item where it is.

As you mentioned, someone would already need to know your account password to access the item.

Is it possible to also store the code in my 1password app on say my Mac?

I don't recommend doing this since it's a little bit like storing the key to a safe inside of that safe. Always save your one-time password for your 1Password account in a different authenticator app like Microsoft Authenticator or Authy.

Your one-time password is only required the first time that you add your 1Password account to a new device. If you lose your authenticator app but still have access to the 1Password app on any of your devices, you can use the app to turn off two-factor authentication and login again: If you lose access to your authenticator app or security key

Let me know if you have any questions. 🙂
