WebAuthn is the standard for token authentication.

(I.e., Yubikeys and other USB sticks.)

It works fine and it a no-brainer to use.

The problems start when vendors start trying to shoehorn their shitty cloud auth services into WebAuthn.

How well does that Yubikey work with an iPhone?
Works just fine, you have to get the one with NFC
You can also plug them in to the USB-C port, works just fine.
Some functionality is not supported via USB-C. Namely HMAC Challenge does not work via usb-c but will work via lighting port.
Works great, they even have ones with USB on one side and Lightning on the other for older iPhones.
iPhones are a lost cause.
Passkeys on my iPhone works awesome.

Too bad for Yubikey. I don't need them any more.
