Flowtext.io: Auto Detect & Copy 2FA SMS Codes for MacOS to Chrome

Flowtext.io is a MacOS application that automatically detects incoming 2FA (two-factor authentication) codes from SMS messages and copies them to your clipboard for easy pasting into Chrome or other apps. The tool aims to streamline the 2FA login process by eliminating manual copying and pasting of codes while prioritizing security and privacy.


How Flowtext.io Works

  1. Flowtext.io monitors incoming SMS messages on MacOS.
  2. When a 2FA code is detected, it is instantly copied to your clipboard.
  3. You are notified of the new code, ready for pasting into the required field.

Flowtext.io supports codes from a variety of services (banks, social platforms like Instagram, GitHub, Gmail, etc.) and plans to expand the list of supported services over time. The app is designed to keep your data on-device, avoiding any outbound data transmission.


Setup & Getting Started

  1. Download the app from Flowtext.io’s website or your device’s app store.
  2. Install and open the application, then complete the on-screen setup.
  3. Ensure permissions are granted so the app can read iMessage/SMS content on your Mac.
  4. Receive 2FA codes automatically copied to your clipboard and paste where needed.

Use Cases
