4 weeks ago Hi, the Upload a QR code button lets you upload any image that contains a QR code, like a screenshot. Isn't that what you're asking for?
Image analysis can take a lot of memory, so you might have to increase the php memory_limit setting to prevent the Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 67108872 bytes) error.

4 weeks ago More or less, i guess the inspiration comes from the authenticator-chrome-extension. There you can select part of the screen and import the QR-code. Which is more convinent than screenshot -> save -> upload. Having saved screenshots might be a security concern also, but thats the users problem.
It is purely a convinience thing and might be a complete nightmare to implement. Some sort of virtual camara-driver that takes a screenshot could be a workaround for my personal usecase.

4 weeks ago Ok I got it. Indeed this will be hard to implement, if not impossible. This implies to "escape' from the 2FAuth tab in the browser to display another one. I don't think this is technically possible/allowed by the browser without an extension (or an OS client app).
Maybe you could ask to @josh-gaby if he can do something with 2fauth-browser-extension

2 weeks ago Would i paste-box make sense? You can copy the QR-image to clipboard in most occations, having the ability to paste it into 2fauth would make the download/upload dance i little more user friendly.

2 weeks ago This one is probably achievable, I keep the idea 👍🏻 (although I still think this is a job for a browser extension)
Probably a nightmare.
Most meeting-type websolutions have some sort of screensharing, I guess this could be used to take a screenshot and import QR-codes that way.
The camera functionality is great for mobile devices - on the desktop a screenshot-type import would be nice.
