PREDATORY APP
Yubico releases official Yubico Authenticator app, only 3mB (not 60+mB like this nonsense, holy chit!). Accept no imitations!
Great But Needs clear clipboard
Very nice work around but don’t clear clipboard so if using for password it stays in there
Would be nice with all the hype like yubikey there was more support and ease of use

Works fine with Yubikey 5 NFC
Retrieved OTP from Yubikey 5 NFC without issue. Nice simple little app.
Broken
Scanning a Yubikey 5 NFC only produces gibberish.
Doesnt work
Wont read Yubikey 5 nfc with a IPhone 8 plus
Doesn’t work with Yubikey 5
AuthAnvil is what my employer uses and it’s horrible. Was hoping this would work but no go.
Works Great
Not sure why many apps don’t use NFC for two step verification, but this is a nice work around without having to buy another dongle or USB type converter.
Functional App, no more usb-to-lighting cables
AuthLite is a highly useful little app, for anyone who is security conscious and uses multi-factor authentication (MFA, also called 2FA). With your NFC enabled security token, such as the Yubikey Neo or Yubikey 5 from Yubico, and a compatible iPhone (7, onwards) you can FINALLY authenticate with your security token without carrying around a stupid USB-to-lightning/8-pin connector cable on iPhone. Honestly, I’m surprised that Yubico has not produced an iOS app like AuthLite.
This app is simple to use, simple to setup, and functions as expected—it does what it says on the tin. The auto-clipboard copy is great. It would be nice if there was a way that iOS would let it run in the background and copy auth codes to the clipboard when you tap your NFC enabled token to your phone, or if iPhones simply had better native support for NFC MFA like FIDO/U2F.
This app fills an important niche, does it well, and appears to (currently—2018-12-02) be the only offering to let you actually use a NFC enabled security token on iPhone. Well done!

I’m just an enthusiastic user who wants to turn on MFA for ALL THE THINGS!!!!)
