Enable pasting screenshots of TOTP QR codes in the Chrome extension
Some websites only offer QR for setting up 2FA. One could take a screenshot with Win+Shift+S and paste it into the TOTP field in Proton Pass. Chrome has a built-in barcode scanner so it's just a few lines of code. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Barcode_Detection_API

To add more weight into this, sometimes the website doesn't offer a "Show secret" that we can then copy/paste into Proton Pass. For example, Kickstarter.
So in order to add 2FA to Proton Pass for Kickstarter, I need to scan the QR Code with my phone, copy the link and then manually write it into the Proton Pass field. -

1password has this feature build in, straight from the plugin.. so why can't proton? :(

Just came on here to post this. Would make things quicker rather than clicking "i can't scan the code" and then copy and paste the key.

like in 1password and others.
ability on the desktop app, to screen capture QR codes to add 2FA codes to login items.
because often websites dont offer ability to copy the 2FA codes, so then i have to reach for my phone to add it via proton pass mobile app...
