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.
