Does exactly it's supposed to. Importantly makes Kerpass2Android Yubikey capable.

Works perfectly! Saved a huge amount of time in trying to understand the Android Yubikey example. Update August 2024: continuing to be pleased with the support this (now invisible!) app offers to my own apps which use the challenge-response protocol of the Yubikey. Works perfectly and easy to use.

I've had securiry keys for years now and this has worked perfect for me and has ever since installing. I can use my yubikeys with NFC or directly plugged into my phone, my phone never has a problem recognizing my keys. I dont even remember any complicated set up, it eas very simple. What more could I ask forr?

Works perfectly, really happy that this tool exists. The sound ist kinda annoying, but thats on Android. Guess they don't expect anyone to actually use NFC for anything but payments...

The only problem I have with this is that it selects slot 1 automatically when key is connected before you unlock - doesn't allow to choose!

The scenario where you need ykDroid is when you use Keepass2Android to open a Keepass XC database with the master key type changed from Password Only to Password + Challenge-Response for Keepass XC. Wished this info was stickied in the app description because I spent months figuring how to manually activate ykDroid when it's really a system service automatically triggered by other apps. Also wasted time trying to figure out why ykDroid didn't show in the Keepass2Android plugin list (it doesn't).

Thankfully previous experience from other users allowed successful installation as there are no instructions anywhere on the Internet.
