Good feature set. I use
Good feature set. I use to hold some SSH keys and a couple of X509 private keys (e. g. Breakglass Kubernetes). Bought NFC version. It would be nice if you could disable apps on NFC and require a management pin to re-enable. As it stands, even a disabled service can just be re-enabled over NFC.

Not as compatible as I thought it would be. On the few things that are compatible, it’s often difficult or frustrating to try to set up. Regret buying!

Response from Staples :
Thank you for your feedback, and we're sorry that the YubiKey 5 NFC isn't as compatible with other services as you had hoped. We understand how frustrating this can be.
You may find our 'Works with YubiKey Catalog' a useful tool for the future. There you can check compatibility with other services. We highly recommend it!

If you'd like, you can also reach out to the service provider to request support for security key tokens.

Response from Staples :
Hello! Since the implementation of security keys needs to come from the service provider itself, in this case banks and financial institutions, we recommend that you reach out to them directly with the request!
Thank you so much for being an advocate for security!
