Authenticator tools

Choose the tool that matches your task. For most time-based authentication codes, start with the 2FA code generator.

Generate authentication codes

Use TOTP for codes based on time. Choose HOTP only when your account or implementation uses a counter.

Work with setup QR codes

Create a QR code from settings you already have, or read the contents of an existing authenticator QR image. A QR code contains sensitive setup information.

Check a setup link

Inspect an otpauth URI to see its type, account label, and parameters. A correctly formatted link does not prove that its key belongs to an account.
