TOTP Generator — Test 2FA Codes From a Secret Key
Enter a TOTP secret (the same base32 key an authenticator app scans from a QR code) to generate the current 6-digit code, using the standard time-based one-time password algorithm — useful for testing 2FA integrations without reaching for your phone every time.
How to use TOTP Generator
- Enter your base32 TOTP secret.
- Read the current 6-digit code, refreshing every 30 seconds.
- Use it to test your 2FA integration.
Frequently asked questions
- Is this the same algorithm as Google Authenticator?
- Yes — TOTP (RFC 6238) is a standard, so any compliant generator, including this one, produces identical codes from the same secret and time.
- Should I use this for my real production 2FA secret?
- For testing and development, this is convenient. For an account's actual production 2FA secret, a dedicated authenticator app is the safer long-term choice since it is not exposed in a browser tab.
- Why did my code not match?
- TOTP codes depend on synchronized clocks — check that your device's system time is accurate, since even a small clock drift produces a different code.
