TOTP for Landlines?
I'm attempting TOTP for Landlines which is unreliable. Does 1Password support TOTP for Landlines? I've generally tried to avoid TOTP on 1Password. I didn't know how well they worked.
TOTP isn't automatically set up with the site logins.
Thanks for the reply. 1Password doesn't support "TOTP for Landline" if you mean receiving a code via a phone call. I would recommend instead using 1Password to store your one-time passwords for those accounts: Use 1Password as an authenticator for sites with two-factor authentication

Hello wkleem! 👋
Thanks for the question. Can you clarify what you mean by "TOTP for Landlines"? TOTP refers to Time-based One-Time Passwords which are temporary passwords generated by authenticator apps using a secret and the current time:
Are you trying to setup TOTP 2FA for a certain website? If you can provide a little more information about what you mean then I can help further.-Dave

Yes I was trying out Time Based One Time Passwords for Landline, It appears to work as a Second Factor sometimes. It worked for Apple, it appeared to have stopped working for Google, which appears to be unsupported now.
It’s not universally recognised.
