Google is improving 2-Step Verification so you can use Google prompts to sign in securely and better protect your account.
Prompts are push notifications that are sent securely to your phone. Because they don’t use SMS, they’re safe from emerging SMS-based threats.
Google sign-in prompts will be able to reach every eligible phone where you’re signed in after July 7, 2020. In most cases, other 2-Step Verification options will continue to work as backup second steps.
Google prompts protect your account
After you enter your password, Google sends a secure push notification to every eligible phone where you’re signed in. This prompt tells you when and where your password was entered, so you can decide whether to approve or block the attempt to sign in.
To stop getting prompts on a particular phone, sign out of that phone. Learn more about Google prompts.
You can always review your security settings in your Google Account.
Sincerely,
The Google Accounts Team
