Comment on KeePassXC 2.5.2

Comments

I noticed in the screenshots that KeePassXC can show TOTP for an entry. Doesn't it limit the usefulness of a TOTP, if both the password and the TOTP seed are stored in the same location? Or am I missing something?

You can have a separate database file as a backup for your TOTP secrets. This way you can setup the TOTP with KeePassXC directly, then transfer the secret to your phone for example. This assumes you can trust the device from which you setup TOTP with KeePassXC.
