That's awesome 1P_Danny . Great great news.
I can't stand when I get a new phone and I'm no where near a computer and want to register or sign into something on my phone and the QR Code pops up on my phone screen.
This happens all the time with OTP QR Codes for authenticator apps.
I think 💬 How can scan the QR code on my phone display that I can't pull up on my computer because there is no email option or screenshots are blocked on the phone? Obviously I can't use my phones camera to scan the screen. For obvious reasons I don't want someone to photograph my screen, email it to themselves so I can scan the QR code.
I can't imagine people who only have their mobile phone as their Internet access. How do they scan QR codes that pop up onto their screens temporarily or are sent in email after registration. To make things worse if their email is protected by an authentication app on a new device but they have no way to add the account to the app to unlock their inbox to get to the QR code to use their phone to scan the code to get into their password manager. Boy they better hope they remember their password manager app or have their secret key saved somewhere and printed out. Hopefully not in their google drive that is locked with OTP/authenticator.
