Should I use 1Password to manage the OTP for 1Password?
I'm really liking the OTP feature in 1Password... I didn't grasp that it could totally replace my other authenticators... but I'm looking at my 1Password credential itself, and I'm wondering if it's ...
Mike... I opened a private browsing Window, and tried to sign in with my username, password, and Secret Code, but then 1Password still demanded my OTP. What do you do if the device producing the OTP is broken / lost / stolen?
I guess in the hypothetical situation of my phone is toast I have to immediately get to 1Password on my laptop and turn off MFA (temporarily) until I have a new mobile device ready to go, then turn MFA back on again?
I guess that's fine for most cases. But what if the sitation is worse... let's say I lose BOTH my mobile device and my laptop. Earthquake. Fire. Flood. My dwelling gets taken out. Or it gets broken into and both of those things go. Then what's my recourse?
I guess I'd really like a set of maybe 5 or 10 one-time use recovery codes that would stand in place of the MFA. I'd keep those printed off. Google does this. Thanks.
