Changed my life. I was getting daily pop ups on my phone for my iCloud and Microsoft accounts, so I switched everything over to Yubikey. Immediately stopped those notifications and I feel exponentially safer.

Hard to figure out how to get started. For example, Yubikey on Google account is still requesting password?

Setup a bit complicated, I didn’t register the item thru the Yubikey web site so it wasn’t accepted at the Facebook web site right away. It’s working with Facebook and Google perfectly now and after getting it registered after activation which isn’t per normal protocol Yubikey showed the actual encryption information that is enables the features of the security key.

good service & product
The product works fine. Ordering & shipping were fairly quick. At pickup it was not clear ALL pickup orders were at an unattended counter separate from checkout so I waited in the checkout line for a while before realizing it. I think they were labeled UPS instead of "All"

This model is nice but it's bigger than expected. I'm curious how well it's going to hold up on a key ring over time. I would like to have seen a model with USB A and C similar to the USB C and Lightening model since USB A is still relevant for a while yet.

I tried setting them up. I don’t know whether I actually did or not. I tried to use them as a passcode and I wasn’t able to. I just threw them in a drawer and count it as a waste of money.

Worthless!
Can not use it for any of my crypto accounts. Need the bio key, which I was not aware of. Buyers remorse for sure.

Had to return my Yubi keys. They did not fit in my old 2014 laptop USB ports. Don’t think they make one that would work for me 🙀
