alot of people may have old flipphones they put this on that no longer have service (meaning that syncing the time and date is impossible because it cant reach its cell tower to update)

an example is an old LG 440G i have thats for tracfone but no longer has service

so possibly allow for setting the time and having an in-app clock (with settings) so that the codes are right even for those stuck in the year 2010

what i mean is a gui time set (pokemon style maybe) because having to calculate seconds for each and every code is painful (especially when you cant see what the time on the device is) and then have it calculate the difference itself)

I have a similar problem. My phone is still working OK with GSM network and GPRS, but it does not sync network time. And the phone user interface allows setting the minutes, but not the seconds. And seconds keep on ticking where it was after saving changes to time. (Seconds are not reset to 0.)

So an in-app time setting would be cool for this too.

ps: now I found a setting whether to sync time. It has two options: "never", "ask". I changed it to "ask" and it is to be seen when it asks to sync. (Tried to turn off and on.) Until that my TOTP will be slipped.

ps: thanks for the great app! Useful still in 2022. ;-)
