This app works well IF you set it up right. The problem is knowing what to do as there is no guide for setup with a YubiKey as mentioned below. In case it helps others out there, this is what my setup was on a device running Android 9 with a YubiKey 5 NFC. I used KeePass to set up the challenge response function with my YubiKey along with a strong Master Key. If I did the same with KeePass 2.40, the database just would not work with Keepass2Android and ykDroid. Also, as another reviewer mentioned, make sure the Encryption Algorithm is set to AES-256 and the Key Derivation Function is set to AES-KDF (KDBX 4) in database settings. Then with the Keepass2Android app, make sure your Master Key setting is set to "Password + Challenge-Response for KeePass XC". I couldn't even start the database unlock with any other setting. Once these things were done with the respective software and database file, the app worked seamlessly. With better instructions for the less patient among us, I would give it 5 stars, but without, I'll give it 4 for effort and forward-thinking. Thanks for laying the groundwork for a great way to better secure our sensitive information on a mobile platform

Useless YubiKey neo support. After many trials it was impossible to open a KeePass database that works without problem on linux and macOS.

Doesn't work! I just went to the trouble of fixing a bug in YubiChallenge and had everything working and now Keepass2Android goes and removes support 😑. I have a YubiKey Neo and the nfc challenge/response takes longer than the OS default timeout for a nfc transaction. Please see YubiChallenges bug tracker for more info.

Didn't even install correctly I think. No icon after installation and didn't help with KeePass....
