Feature Request: Show QR Code #17

Much like Authenticator Pro for Android, it would be really excellent if we could show the QR Code for a given OTP entry.

This allows us to use OTP Manager to be used to seed other Authenticator programs, and to backup entries.

The use is not clear to me. Because for backups there is the possibility to export and import on the webapp. How can the QR code be used with other authenticators?

Having it from the app can be easier UX, and rapidly being able to use the phone to be captured for QR Code is a lot easier than a full import/export UX, especially across devices where a file transfer would be needed, and one needs to make sure import/export formats align, whereas the QR Code is defacto supported by any OTP app.

Ok actually exporting the single account as a QR code to be able to import it into another OTP app can be useful.

With the new release I have implemented the possibility of generating the QR code for the account. You can find the button when you slide the account to the left.
