Yubico Authenticator

Yubico Authenticator generates two-step verification codes for online accounts on mobile and desktop devices. It supports TOTP and HOTP, and users can add credentials by scanning a service’s QR code. Credentials are stored in a YubiKey secure element; Yubico says they cannot be extracted. Since the credentials remain on the portable YubiKey, the same codes are available through the mobile and desktop apps. The mobile app supports tap-and-go authentication on NFC-enabled devices, and credentials can be added with a YubiKey touch or NFC tap. Yubico says users can unlock a YubiKey with Face ID or Touch ID. The app can display OATH codes and manage a YubiKey’s FIDO PIN or perform a factory reset. It is free and open-source software, listed at free, for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS/iPadOS, and Android. Generating and displaying OATH credentials with the desktop app requires a YubiKey.
