App does not show a keyboard with attached YubiKey and other FIDO2 device

iOS and Android detect a connected YubiKey and other FIDO2 devices as a physical keyboard and does not show the software keyboard. This behavior is typical for YubiKey and 2FA devices to input one-time passwords.

On iOS, you can open a Software keyboard using the panel on the screenshot. Please find it by openning any text field, e.g., by clicking on Label field in the Host Screen or search field in the iOS settings. The iOS will remember your preferences for showing Software Keyboard while the FIDO2 devices are connected.

On Android, you can control this behavior via the Input and Keyboard settings in the System settings.
