When adding a token with otpauth url scheme, the app stays on the begin setup screen #686
Description
Activity
Could you give many more pieces of information such as your phone brand and version, app version, and exact steps to reproduce?
adding a token from an otpauth url does not work on Android anyway.
What do you mean?
Then you can open a text editor and write a url similar to this one to generate a fake token
Do you mean in an HTML file, which you then browse to with the phone?
Gotcha.
I've filed a bug internally: b/142391671
When using the otpauth:// url scheme to automatically open and add a token into Google Authenticator, the token is correctly added in the background but the app stays on the "Begin setup" screen (when there is 0 token in the app). The app needs to be closed and re-opened to see the token. This is not user friendly as a user may think that the token was not added correctly. When there is already one or more tokens in the app, this issue is not present.
