Frequently Asked Questions
Unfortunately, there is not much that can be done about it besides remembering the password. The password is used to encrypt your accounts when saving them on disk. Thus, they cannot be restored without the password. Your only option is to restore the accounts using account backups (*.otpauth and *.otpauthdb files) whose password you know. In this case proceed as follows:
- Delete OTP Auth from your device.
- Reinstall OTP Auth from the App Store.
- Open OTP Auth and finish the initial setup process. Make sure you save the password in a safe place 😊.
- Depending on the file you want to use for restoring either import the account (*.otpauth files) or restore from the backup (*.otpauthdb files).
Open OTP Auth on your iPhone, create a new folder and delete the new folder. This should trigger a sync between iPhone and Apple Watch and should solve the problem 😊.
You can left swipe on any account and choose "Move". In the following screen choose the target folder and your account is moved 😊.
Please proceed as follows:
- Please make sure that iCloud Sync is disabled on every device. After you made sure, restore the backup on one device and reenable iCloud Sync on that device again. When asked whether to continue with the database stored in iCloud or with the local database, choose to replace the iCloud database with the local database.
- Wait a few minutes to make sure the changes have been synced to all other devices.
- Now reenable iCloud Sync on all remaining devices. When asked whether to continue with the database stored in iCloud or with the local database, choose to replace the local database with the iCloud database.
