my gmail is asking for 2 step authentications or prompt

Post by BittenApple »

Hello all,

I have a Gmail account for years, since August 2024, it sends me a message that I need to say it is me on my phone or iPad and then hit a number on my phone that is shown on my computer screen.

I don't know how to get rid of this step. I turned off prompt and 2 step authentications, it is still asking me for verification. In the past, once in a while, 2 step verification was asked, right now, each time, I want to log into my Gmail, it sends me a code on my apple phone or iPad, I need to keep my phone or iPad nearby, each time I want to login to my Gmail. I hope this makes sense.

Thanks,
Bitten Apple

Hello Hans,

No, it does not help.

Sorry, I hit I don't want to receive any notifications. That was done by mistake. I do want to receive notifications.

Thank you,
Bitten Apple

Huh? That is exactly the opposite. But the article I linked to covers that too.

Hello Hans,

I went to Apple store, and they said that Gmail is not their product. I will go to Microsoft store soon.

I will read the article one more time.
