4 years ago@Yeraze 2FA is to protect your data on the 1Password server. The YubiKey/2FA prevents an attacker who has your master password and secret key from also getting a copy of your password database.
Only login to 1Password on devices you trust. Keyloggers are not the only threat. Someone with access to a device you're using could take a copy of your password database, master password and secret key. Even if 2FA was added to the 1Password client app, they could get around it by decrypting your database using their own decryption software.
