According to some threads I've read it doesn't work in all circumstances.

Personally I wouldn't risk it since it could mean risking getting locked out of your account.

I've been using it for a few years now and I haven't encountered a place where I couldn't use it. It might force you to enter the TOTP code at the end of your password though, but it works.
