F-Droid now has a TOTP generator that works thanks to Miceli guys :heart_eyes:

Searching F-Droid with “otp” in my A15 lists only 3 : mOTP generator, and 2 helpers: SecureOTP and Copy SMS Code (minimum required and 2 bonus for the ones too lazzy to copy/paste).

Many keywords, use them all totp hotp otp, one at a time :slight_smile:

“otp” and “2fa” should match all isn’t it ? Not even talking about SMS or anything else, at least hotp and totp should, as specific implementations. “2fa” gives more hits but, as a non native English speaker I didn’t thought about it,… and whatever, it doesn’t match mOTP app :roll_eyes:
Advisors should more often put themself in their recipients’ shoes.
Have a nice day (I don’t take that much risks :wink:)

even with the broken search in F-Droid client 1.23 you get 4 hits for “otp”, 2 for “totp” and 10 for “2fa”

not F-Droid’s fault what developers put in their descriptions

in newer 2.0-alphas (F-Droid Basic 2.0 alpha released): 9 hits for “otp”, 18 for “totp”, 10 for “hotp”, and “motp” is always listed

for “2fa” we get 18 hits and “motp” is not… for the reason above

we also have a whole category now: Password & 2FA visible in all clients

As I said : 3 hits

And I never moan F-Droid is faulty at all - my OP was only constructive about what I though could help others in the same deadlock I felt myself. But if the key-words search result depends on developers descriptions, why is there, according to you, a difference of 2 against 18 for totp depending on FD client release?
Categories are boring too broad and overlapping which makes them useless for me, at least for my language as many lack translated description, so as I seldom install new apps I nevermore search via categories (to be fully honest that led me to completely forget them), maybe wrongly thinking key words are more straight forward.
In fact the “Mots de passes & A2F” category shows 58 apps, mostly not able to be topt generators or far too huge of rich features, but at least mOTP was listed… key-words did the job… for this very one, far more efficiently.

Really, a nice day to you and all F-Droid team that work hard to make the Android world better. Many thanks

because F-Droid 1.23 and older has a broken search :person_shrugging:
Fixed in 2.0-alphas :slight_smile:

Things have changed in the last year, maybe check again
