Huh. I remember a while ago Google Authenticator hid TOTP codes until you tap on them to reveal them. I remember thinking this was an absolutely stupid feature, because it did not mitigate any real threat and was annoying and inconvenient. Apparently a lot of people agreed because a few weeks later, Google Authenticator quietly rolled that feature back.

I wonder if they were aware of this flaw, and were mitigating the risk.
