Is integrated TOTP available on Android as only iOS is mentioned on the features page?

I’m considering using the integrated TOTP in Bitwarden. On this page, it explicitly says integration is available in the browser extension and iOS. There is no mention of Android. Can someone please confirm whether integrated TOTP exists for Android? I’m considering upgrading from the free plan and this is one feature that would be worth the price of admission on its own.

Thanks in advance for any response.

@dsotropa Welcome to the forum!

The Troubleshooting section of the documentation does mention Android, so I would expect this feature to be available for Android, as well. If you upgrade to Premium and find out that the integrated authenticator does not work on your Android device, you can contact Customer Support for a refund within 30 days.

@dsotropa Welcome to the forum!

Well, define “available”…

Yes, you can access the generated TOTP codes from the integrated authenticator on the Android mobile app as well. – I think the difference between Android and iOS here is the following: as far as I know, on iOS there is a mechanism for TOTP autofill (e.g. in a login field in your browser). – On Android, that is only possible via an indirect mechanism: there is a setting to automatically copy the TOTP code into the clipboard after an autofill of username/email and password, so that you can paste the TOTP after that into the TOTP login field.

Thanks @Nail1684 Appreciate the quick response!!! I suppose that’s a bit more convenient than grabbing it from the BW Authenticator and given it works automatically in the browser extension, worth considering the paid upgrade.
