Yubico Authenticator

Also, thanks for the tip on dismissing the NFC pop-up with swipe down gesture!

I think they generally mean well, at least I’m looking forward to Working with them, to Make this work.They did respond to my review. I will try to contact Support after the Holiday. I cannot Fathom why anyone would want to create, or use, such an un-User friendly device though. I am all into the forefront of technology, I am called a “Techie” who can fix ANYTHING! But… this device… it has sat for many months as an Paperweight one that is Incapable of reading its OWN Miniscule (beyond Tiny) QR code even. The Clunky-interface is 1930’s Flashback. And, this “Techie” was Unable to move One step forward, with it. Mindnumbing, that they would put this out, as a Finished product. Their Responses are Just “canned” responses they Cut-and-Paste. I reluctantly “updated” the O/s against my better judgement. STILL, Nothing works! It Still requires the ‘update’ or WILL NOT install. This thing does Nothing… it Just sits there and Looks at you!! Still, have not found one-Single QR code. Not on sites like Login.gov … not even to goofle. Zero And, What the heck is this “secret passphrase”? No Pop-up Help, or Any kind. No Instructions, zip, zero. Do I even NEED this thing? It seems like just redundant MFA which i certainly wouldn’t spend $100 on. It LITERALLY CAN’T read ITS OWN QR code on the device! Nada. This thing COMPLICATES Life, so much, Not make it easier… it is *Definitely Not* Intuitive I may not even return it I might just Throw it in the garbage. HOW Could ANYTHING be Worse than ID.Me.? You Have to update apple in order to even Install it, which is Scary! Nothing works Intuitively, you have to be a computer savvy, no IT personnel, to even be able to use it. It never scans the QR code; you Have to Click the “manual” button! Next, it Asks for NON-existent QR codes… Presumably for Each individual Website you want to set-up? Can’t work on anything out of the box, but Maybe I’ll be able to figure this thing out before returning it.

Works sometimes, others no luck …. I literally thought it was bad …. Plug it into tablet, works …. Reinsert in iPhone, works now … very buggy no guidance…. I spent 3x the money to have the app … didn’t really work or do what it says ,well sometimes it does …. I have a few other brands and I’ve not had the issues…. I could have bought 3 for the 75$ I feel I wasted on this . Save yourself the headache and get a Titan or thetis . For way less .

I just bought two nanos and I absolutely cannot use this app. It crashes in seconds of opening it and trying to add account. Terrible. I hope something will change in the next day or two or I’ll just have to return both keys.

It took me a minute to figure it out, but once I did it became my preferred Authenticator app and my preferred backup method for my yk5c. I also appreciate the developer reaching out to assist, though I had figured it out beforehand.

Can’t get my codes on iPhone 15 running iOS 17.3.1. This is happening for app version 1.7.9 (build 128). Really annoying.

I have two yubikey’s that work great with the desktop companion app “Yubico Authenticator”. When I plug in to phone and/or use NFC on both my Yubikeys, the iOS app shows my keys and numeric code to input for login but when I input for login I get “keys don’t match” or something like that from the website. I plug back in to computer and works. Not sure what is going on. I just got these for the Authy EOS on desktop. Oh well. Guess more hardware for the drawer.

Worked great when i bought the yubikeys but since updating my phone (13mini) when I swipe down to tap to get rolling codes off the yubikey nothing happens, no feedback. hopefully a bugfix will save the day.

Everything works as far as credentials go but this app is missing a feature you have in other OS (MacOS, Android) versions, the ability to load an icon pack.
