Can’t seem to find the setting in the Jerboa app. Do I have to use the web version or something?

    It’s a otpauth:// protocol handler link, which should load fine on mobile if you have an app that supports it.

    I do agree that displaying a QR code while on desktop would be more practical. As a workaround, you could use this addon on Firefox to display the otpauth:// link in a QR code format and scan that.

    ⚠ Be careful about not showing this code to anyone else, it contains the secret to the 2FA.

      Wow, thank you so much! With this extension I got it done via the QR code the extension created. :)

      Have you tried this ? I am scared I will lock myself out of my account. Also after getting the link, do I just add it to an authenticator app like Aegis and call it a day.

        I’m currently using it :)

        I stored it both in Aegis, in my Bitwarden vault and my KeePass backup vault and they all generate the same code.
