Post subject:  Yubikey NEO and nonNFC Devices
So I have found that Iam able tuse Yubikey NEO and its Yubikey OTP password generation using a micro-USB to USB adapter on my Sasmung Galaxy Tab S as this device doesn't support NFC. So websites like this on that utilize the Yubikey OTP generated passwords I can still access but the Yubico Authenticator is what I really need to be able to use. I won't always be able to use the desktop or android/nfc application to generate this 6 digit time code. Is there a way to install the Yubico Authenticator on non-NFC devices and have it recognize the Yubikey through the micro-USB port?
Here is how I am able to use part of the Yubikey NEO on a non-NFC device.

I dont think so.

Problem is probably the drivers.
over NFC a chip can send pretty much anything which gets directly inside the NFCing app (yubi authenticator)
while on USB it's limited by the drivers of the system and as the YubiAuth needs to be installed (admin rights) to install on windows I guess there are some drivers or similar that have to be there that you probably wont get on android that quickly.

but Keyboarding is available because android aas well as almost every system supports HID Keyboards which makes at least that work.
