Autofilling 2FA codes on iOS
Hey everyone, On iOS, 1Password fills in IDs and passwords just fine, but to get the 2FA code I have to open the 1Password app and copy it. Is there a better way to do this that I'm missing out on?...
Heya' WendyAppleseed 👋
Great question! 1Password uses the iOS native filling feature to fill your username and password into apps, this feature doesn't support filling one-time passwords from 1Password at this time. However you can have 1Password automatically copy your one-time password for an app or website to the clipboard so that you can paste it into the app when filling your login information:
- Open and unlock 1Password 8.
- Tap the icon for your account or collection at the top left and choose Settings.
- Tap AutoFill.
- Turn on "Copy One-Time Passwords"
- Go back to Settings.
- Tap Notifications.
- 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: Select, cut, copy, and paste text on iPhone - Apple Support (CA)
When it comes to the website you can use our extension for Safari which does have the ability to fill the one-time password: Get to know 1Password for Safari on your iPhone or iPad
Let me know if that helps!
