Hello, I have both Authy and Yubikey as factors for my 1password account. Can I ask, in the event of logging in via safari, MacBook Pro Catalina and iOS14.4 - can I use the yubikey when the account asks for 6 digit passcode? Are they interchangeable?

Kind regards.

    Hi @bear67512!

    You can certainly use the Yubikey if you prefer, but you always have the option to use the 2FA code in case you don't have access to your hardware key, for example. This is because not every 1Password app currently supports Yubikeys, so there needs to be a backup method to login, or you would not be able to login to these apps until we introduce support for hardware keys there.
