Description

Store your unique credentials on a hardware-backed security key and take it wherever you go from mobile to desktop. No more storing sensitive secrets on your mobile phone, leaving your account vulnerable to takeovers. With the Yubico Authenticator you can raise the bar for security.

* The Yubico Authenticator will work with any USB, Lightning, or NFC-enabled YubiKeys.
* As iPads do not have NFC, they will only work through a Lightning or USB connection.

The Yubico Authenticator generates a code used to verify your identity as you are logging into various services. No connectivity needed!

Features include:
Touch or NFC Authentication - Touch the YubiKey sensor or simply tap a YubiKey with NFC to a mobile phone that is NFC-enabled to store your credential on the YubiKey
USB-C support - Connect the YubiKey 5Ci or any USB-C type YubiKey. When prompted, depending on the key, touch the contacts on the sides of the key or the golden ring on the top
Biometric support - Experience greater convenience by unlocking your YubiKey with FaceID or TouchID
Easy Setup - QR codes available from the services you wish to protect with strong authentication
User Presence - New codes generated with just a touch or NFC tap of the YubiKey
Compatible - Secure all the services currently compatible with other Authenticator apps
Secure - Hardware-backed strong two-factor authentication with secret stored on the YubiKey, not on the mobile device
Versatile - Support for multiple work and personal accounts
Portable - Get the same set of codes across our other Yubico Authenticator apps for desktops as well as for all leading mobile platforms
Flexible - Support for time-based and counter-based code generation
Smart Card - Support for Apple's CryptoTokenKit Extension making it possible to use certificates stored on your YubiKey to authenticate with other apps and sites

Recent update changes how details are shown

Since the latest update when I unlock the app no codes are shown. I have to select the one I want and use the key again. So now a 1 step process has changed to a2 step. Not sure why.

Developer Response ,

Hi there! Thank you for sharing this feedback with us. In our latest update (1.6.3) we've added a setting to bypass the extra NFC tap required for accounts that has requires touch set. There's also a NFC setting that will start NFC automatically when the app starts.

Love it!

No complaints at all, it’s working very smoothly with my NFC key.
I can’t give 5 stars for one personal reason, I’d love to export all my accounts in one go to make a new spare key, like another Authentication App (G)
Hopefully one day they’ll add this feature!

Developer Response ,

Fantastic App

I feel so much safer now I have locked down my accounts with this app. Thank you for a great app.

The only wish list item for me is to make the UI more colourful, it all looks a bit drab especially the dark mode.

Developer Response ,

Thank you for the feedback! We will pass along to our product team.
