Review on Yubico YubiKey 5C Nano - USB-C Two Factor Authentication Security Key - Enhanced Online Account Protection Beyond Passwords - FIDO Certified USB Password Key - Ultra Compact Size by Flavio Scarola

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Yubikey isn't supported as widely as the ads suggest.

Yubikey offers a native 2FA app with a 6-digit code that requires a Yubikey to unlock, so they will promote any website that runs standard apps with a 6-digit code who support Yubikey. Even websites that work with Yubikey often only work with Google Chrome, although Firefox supports it and there are plugins to add support for Safari. I am returning my Yubikey but may purchase it in the future when better maintained. I am frustrated with Yubico's dishonest marketing of my product.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Makes me angry
