How to set it up for Reddit? about freeotp-android HOT 9 OPEN

Hi, what information does reddit give you manually to enter? please modify the secret value before including.

You should be able to enter the fields manually into FreeOTP. Or generate a QR code with https://freeotp.github.io/qrcode.html or https://stefansundin.github.io/2fa-qr/

Well, reddit just wasn't accepting the otp code. I finally did the QR scan using 2 devices. But still, using an image from gallery is always helpful & it should be a feature.

If you click on the "Add" icon, then on the "Pen" one, you can add a token manually. Is it what you are looking for?

No no, that I know, I know how to add token manually but just adding the token & website name doesn't work. Like for example, for Twitter you're required to add @Username, for email service you're required to add [email protected] but for Reddit I've tried everything & nothing works, the Reddit doesn't accept the code whatsoever. I've tried adding "Username", "@Username" "reddit.com/username", "[email protected]", "reddit.com/user/username" and so on.

This app doesn't have the feature to scan QR from gallery

Try a fake camera app which pretends to take an image, but just opens an image from gallery. GalleryCam is one such application.

And how do you suggest I use that with FreeOTP? You do know that FreeOTP has built in scanner, RIGHT? That's the whole point ain't it? The built in scanner/camera doesn't let you choose QR code from gallery & 3rd party apps are of NO USE here.

Oh, right. Sorry for being dumb. I guess you could use another device to display the QR code.

Actually, I looked up an example QR code from Reddit 2FA. The URL looks like this: otpauth://totp/Reddit:mundoconjulio?secret=PTG6CROZMCHTSWZ62SYPBNSHXWXWLUVG&issuer=Reddit.

@Th3-A6add0n Opening images of QR codes is definitely useful. There's already an issue for it: #370.
