I would like to consolidate all my security in BW, notwithstanding some sage advice to the contrary in Security risks of using Bitwarden as authenticator and password manager. It normally is designed to transfer the setting from one phone to another by showing a QR code you have to scan with the Google Authenticator app on the new phone. This is incorrect, the app has an 'export' function. Google Auth doesnt have any export function. (FWIW, I keep my Authy and Bitwarden apps right next to each other. Then maybe Bitwarden can import plain URI keys.

Software based, not dependent on carrier fees or telephony access and deliverability Hello, I am new to bitwarden and was very surprised that the key is presented, I do not believe this is discussed in via feature request domain and not as a CVE.
