=== Supported devices
Usage of this software requires a compatible YubiKey device. Yubico
Authenticator is capable of provisioning and using both slot-based credentials
(compatible with any YubiKey that supports OTP) as well as the more powerful
standalone OATH functionality found on the NEO and YubiKey 4 series.
To use the standalone OATH functionality your YubiKey must have the CCID mode enabled,
which can be done by using the https://developers.yubico.com/yubikey-manager-qt/[YubiKey Manager].
