You will need an authenticator application on your phone or another device (Duo Mobile, Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, 2STP, OTP Auth, Authy, or others) for initial device registration.

Ask your Bitbucket administrator what kind of application to download.

After you have successfully added the U2F device, you will see the device's name on the list.
