Implement QR scan to login into TypingMind account

Current login solutions involve one time passcode or passkey. Both solutions require external dependencies such as access to email and access to password manager. QR login allows typing mind to be used on public computer without the risk of password being stolen. It also requires less mental effort to use compared to one time passcode.

    Hello, I’m not sure how a QR code isn’t an external dependency as you still need a device with a camera. Webauthn supports external device mode, assuming the public machine in question has bluetooth enabled, which leverages QR codes (assuming you’re using a platform authenticator such as an android device or iphone). If you already need a device to handle the QR code scanning, why can’t that device also receive email? I’m not sure the mental effort holds up here, how often do you need to reauthenticate that it’s become such an issue?
