To import accounts, you need another device with Google Authenticator installed. This is needed to generate the QR-code you will scan from your device with Kaspersky Password Manager.
- Take another device with Google Authenticator. In the Google Authenticator menu, tap Transfer accounts.
- Tap Export accounts and follow the instructions.
- Choose the accounts you want to export. A QR code will be displayed on the screen.
- Open Kaspersky Password Manager on a device with a camera.
- Unlock the vault by entering the main password and tapping Unlock.
If your device is running Android 6.0 or later, supports fingerprint authentication, and has fingerprint authentication enabled in the app settings, you can use it to unlock your vault instead of entering the main password.
- In the main app window, tap or swipe the screen to the right.
The quick access bar appears on the left.
- On the quick access bar, tap Authenticator> .
- In the window that opens, tap Import from Google.
Your device's camera opens.
- If the device prompts you to give the app access to the camera, do so in the device settings. To do this, tap Go to settings. If you had to open the device settings, repeat steps 5–8.
- Scan the QR code with the camera.
The imported accounts appear in the list of entries in the Authenticator section of Kaspersky Password Manager. One-time passwords will be generated every 30 seconds.
