Export codes from 4OTP

While we hope you like 4OTP and will keep using it forever, your codes are not trapped inside the app and you can export them out to Google Authenticator, or any other 2FA apps that can read

What do you need?

Google Authenticator can scan one or more QRCodes that represents your existing codes. In order to do that, you’ll need 2 devices:

One device running 4OTP: a phone or a computer
your phone running Google Authenticator

Your 4OTP device will display those QRCodes and you can scan them with Google Authenticator running on the phone

Google Authenticator is only available on phones and tablets.
