Shadcn Input OTP

Clean and secure OTP input components for authentication and verification flows.

Shadcn Input OTP components help users enter verification codes smoothly without confusion. Built with React and Tailwind CSS, these OTP input variations are useful for login systems, password recovery, transaction verification, and secure onboarding flows.

Instead of using a single plain input field, OTP components split codes into smaller input boxes, making the experience easier to understand and faster to complete on both desktop and mobile devices.

What is the Shadcn Input OTP?

Shadcn Input OTP is a verification input component used for entering one-time passwords, PIN codes, or authentication tokens. It separates the code into multiple small input boxes and manages focus automatically while users type.
