You can just decode the QR code and use whatever secret is in there to generate the OTP codes. TOTP isn't that complicated, it's really just a second password that the system generates.

While true, I haven't yet seen an authenticator app that let's you just dump the topt code yet...

  • 1Password can show the whole URI with the seed, and I have used it in the past to tediously restore seeds to my other 2FA apps.
