With its 2FA app, Passport Prime enables you to store and manage your most important 6-digit 2FA codes in a secure and offline environment, ensuring your online accounts are protected by a second-factor authentication layer to guard against hacks and identity theft.
2FA codes come back from your Magic Backup's app data, not from the Master Key alone. Keep each service's recovery codes too.
Adding a 2FA Code
To add your first 2FA code to Passport Prime, simply tap Add 2FA Code and scan the QR code being displayed by the account you want to add a second layer of authentication to. This could be anything from a work based website, your email, a Bitcoin exchange or even your Google account.
The Add 2FA Code button opens the Scan QR camera, which also has an Import from File button for authenticator exports . These are the only two ways to add a code. On KeyOS 1.4.x you can't type in a 2FA secret key by hand, so use the QR code the service shows when you set up 2FA.
After scanning the QR code, Passport Prime opens the Add 2FA Code screen. Give the code a Label, enter the associated Account, optionally add the Issuer, and choose a Color.
After pressing Save, the new 2FA code will be added to your list.
Passport Prime supports 2FA codes that refresh every 30 seconds, which is the standard for most services. Codes that use a different time period can't be added and show a Time is Unsupported message.
To add additional codes, simply tap the three-dot menu icon and choose Add 2FA Code.
Tapping on any of your saved 2FA codes will open the expanded view.

Importing Existing Codes
Already using another authenticator app? You can bring your codes across to Passport Prime in a single step. Passport Prime can import from Google Authenticator, Aegis, 2FAS, Proton Authenticator and Proton Pass.
Tap Add 2FA Code in the 2FA app to start. You can either scan an export QR code with the camera, or tap Import from File on the camera screen and choose an export file from Internal storage, the Airlock, or connected USB storage. Password protected encrypted exports from Aegis, 2FAS, Proton Authenticator and Proton Pass are supported, and Passport Prime will prompt you for the password before decrypting.
From Google Authenticator
Already using Google Authenticator? You can bring all of your codes across to Passport Prime in a single step.
In the Google Authenticator app, open the menu and choose Transfer accounts, then Export accounts, and select the codes you want to move. Google Authenticator will display an export QR code. If you have a lot of accounts, they may be split across more than one QR code.
In the Passport Prime 2FA app, tap Add 2FA Code and scan the export QR code. Passport Prime recognizes that it holds multiple accounts and asks you to confirm, showing how many will be added.
Confirm the import and all of the codes are added to your list at once. If the export spans several QR codes, repeat the scan for each one.
From Aegis, 2FAS, Proton Authenticator or Proton Pass
Export your accounts from Aegis, 2FAS, Proton Authenticator or Proton Pass (CSV or ZIP export), then move the export file onto Passport Prime using the Airlock or a USB drive. If you copied it to the Airlock from a computer, safely eject and disconnect the USB cable first, as Passport Prime can't open files from the Airlock while it is connected (see Airlock and USB Connections ). In the 2FA app, tap Add 2FA Code, then Import from File, and select the export.
If the export is encrypted, Passport Prime asks for the password you set during the export and shows a spinner while it decrypts. Once decrypted, your codes are added to the list.
Prefer an encrypted export where the app offers one. An unencrypted authenticator export is a plain list of your 2FA secrets, so treat that file the same way you would treat a seed phrase and delete it once the import is done.
Search and Reorder
With several codes saved, tap the three-dot menu icon on the main app screen and choose Search to find a code, or Reorder to sort your codes by Alphabetical, Date or Custom order.
Edit/Archive
To edit any details relating to a code, tap the Edit button from the expanded view screen. Unwanted 2FA codes can be archived from this screen.
View/Restore Archive
To view archived 2FA codes, simply tap the three-dot menu icon from the main app screen, then tap View Archive.
Tapping on any archived 2FA code will enable you to permanently delete it from Passport Prime, or restore it just in case it was archived in error.
