I got this after my wife's boyfriend hacked me he hacked my cell phone and my computer and stoled my peacock and Origins account but basically for the damage he did I had to pretty much had to replace every account I had I find this to be the perfect fix to my problem I now have this installed on my Google account and my Microsoft account, and I found it to also work with my Samsung account letting me know that no one can fully take over my account without the key

A great, open-source authenticator from a company focused on security and privacy. This app is non-invasive (requiring minimal permissions, only Camera for QR codes and NFC). Made to work for the physical key and is all done on the device, It is simple and does its job as intended, with no unnecessary features or advertisements. Highly recommended for its transparency and simplicity.

I was forced by ChatGPT Daybreak to jump through the YubiKey hoops, but both the app's functionality and the key itself (I bought a pair of 5C NFCs) work as they should, so no complaints there. Will the key make my life more secure? I don't know, but it works with every online service supporting FIDO2 that I've tried so far. The app helps me verify the passkey storage on each key, so it works as advertised. I will continue using passwords, TOTP, and passkeys, though.

Always open authenticator app when key is inserted is not working. This setting is not persistent or there's some other issue with Android 15. Also, why does Android say it's charging the key when it's inserted?

I have created passkeys on YubiKey 5 using passkeys.eu demo. I am able to log in to it using passkeys now. But YubiKey authenticator says there are no passkeys on my YubiKey. Why? Also NFC is flimsy on Android 14. What is happening?

NFC does not work with new smartphone. My older smartphone is getting old and the battery starts giving up too early. So I got new one. YubiKey 5 NFC is still working with the old smartphone, but NOT with the new smartphone. Although I already try to connect the YubiKey 5 NFC through USB once with the new smartphone (I was thinking that they might need a more secure intro each other at least once), the YubiKey 5 NFC still can NOT work through the NFC tap.
