QR Code for TOTP multi factor (like google authenticator) — how do I set my logo?












0















We generate a QR code fine for TOTP multi factor. This QR code can be consumed fine by google authenticator, authy, etc.



We are trying to figure out how to include our logo, so the auth app can show our logo instead of a generic logo.



I have dug all over for the spec on what goes in the QR code, and have not found this info yet.

          There is nothing in the spec for adding a logo.



          Instead, what services like Authy and andOTP do is look at the provider, and pattern match against a known list of popular providers.



          For example, andOTP has a curated list of thumbnails for specific services.



          If your organisation is as big as, say, Dropbox - you'll already be on the list. If not, you'll need to ask Authy and all the other providers to add your logo.

            This has nothing to do with TOTP at all.
            As the data in any QR code is redundant, there are some techniques allowing adding a logo by sacrificing the redundancy. Your QR code will become less readable though
