3 years agoUsing 1Password as 2FA Authenticator App for Snapchat
I'm trying to set up 1Password as my 2FA authenticator app for my Snapchat account, but it seems that Duo and Google Authenticator are their only supported apps for the "Set up Automatically" option so I need to set it up manually. However, when I choose the "Set up Manually" option it just generates a unique key, which I'm not sure how to use to set up 2FA in 1Password. It seems that 1Password needs a QR code to set up 2FA. Has anyone had success with this?

Hello @kevinpparker! 👋
You can save string that Snapchat gave you in 1Password by following the steps in this guide: Use 1Password as an authenticator for sites with two-factor authentication
At step 4 paste the string into 1Password rather than trying to scan a QR code. Let me know if you run into any issues. 🙂
