WhatsApp PIN codes (Digit PINs)

wkleem

WhatsApp allows me to choose a pre determined 6 digit PIN as a second factor. The issue that I have is that each version of 1Password Password Generator works differently with regard to numeric only PINs. I will have to reconfirm but I recall 1Password.com is lacking in Digit selection?

You're right: we don't have uniformity here. Hopefully we will some day. :)

Also: that isn't a second factor, it is a second step (as the title of the page in WhatsApp properly indicates):

Thanks @Ben,

All this terminology can be confusing. Meanwhile, back to Mac, iOS or 1Password v4 for Windows for this issue. :)

Amen. :lol:

Hopefully things will improve as two-factor becomes more prevalent, and we'll continue to work to improve consistency within 1Password. Cheers! :)
