AutoFill your 2FA codes and passkeys - right above the keyboard, on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. QuickOTP is a native authenticator with no account, no server, and no cloud: every code and passkey lives in your device's Keychain, offline, all the time. WHY QUICKOTP - AutoFill everywhere. Codes and passkeys appear right above your keyboard on iPhone and iPad, and in the macOS AutoFill menu on your Mac - no copy-paste, no switching apps. - A real Mac app, not a browser extension. QuickOTP lives in your Mac's menu bar, always one click away, with a widget for at-a-glance codes. - Passkeys, not just codes. Store and use WebAuthn passkeys alongside your TOTP codes in one vault - QuickOTP is one of the only authenticators that does both. - Nothing leaves your Keychain. No account to create, no server to trust, no sync service reading your secrets. Your vault stays local and offline, protected by Face ID or Touch ID. - Import, export, back up. Move your codes in or out whenever you want - your data is never locked in. - One-time lifetime unlock. Skip the subscription: pay once and own Pro forever, starting at $14.99. KEY FEATURES - TOTP code generation for every standard 2FA setup (Google, Microsoft, GitHub, banks, and more) - Passkey (WebAuthn) storage and sign-in via system AutoFill - AutoFill Credential Provider on both iOS and macOS - codes and passkeys offered right where you need them - Native macOS menu-bar app with a widget - Face ID / Touch ID protection - QR code scanning to add new accounts in seconds - Import and export your vault - Works on iPhone, iPad, and Mac SWITCHING FROM ANOTHER APP? If your old authenticator dropped its Mac app, buried you in a subscription, or wants your codes on someone else's server, QuickOTP is built for exactly that frustration: one native app, on every Apple device you own, that never asks you to sign up or sync to the cloud. PRO (OPTIONAL) The free tier covers everyday 2FA. Pro unlocks backup, import/export, and extra customization - as a subscription, or as a one-time $14.99 lifetime purchase with no recurring charge, ever. No ads. No tracking. No account required. Download QuickOTP and put your codes and passkeys exactly where AutoFill can find them.
