TOTP URI 'period' parameter is ignored if value is above 255
Hi. I am a long time 1Password user. I recently set up a new service that uses TOTPs.
The problem I am having is that the codes needed for this service are synchronized with a period of 300 second...
I apologize for not following up on this question sooner.
I have tested it, and the issue remains unresolved.
I need this because the TOTP period for the service I use is set by my company. They chose a 300-second period. I don’t know why, but I cannot change it. If they did, all users would need to update their TOTP generators with the new period.
Apple Passwords generates codes correctly with the 300-second period. However, it’s inconvenient to use two password managers just for this.
Thank you for your time and help. Have a nice day.

Hi Dave. Is there any progress on any changes related to this report?
The current 1Password version still does not work correctly: TOTP 'period' values above 255 are ignored.
I still cannot use 1Password to manage TOTP codes for this service, which is frustrating. It means I have to use a separate app just for this.
Hi Dave! Are there any updates on this issue?
Thanks again.

I don't have any updates to share at the moment. The issue is still open in our developer's backlog.
