I disagree with you
I just have gmail push to the native app.
Shrug.

No. When I go into my Gmail account on my computer, I have to authenticate by opening Gmail on my phone. I get this:
Google sent a notification to your [name of phone]. Open the Gmail app and tap Yes on the prompt to verify it’s you.
On my way to France for 9 days. I am going to drink wine, eat croissants and stinky cheese, and look for bee eaters and little bustards.
Ahhhhh. So not really 2-Factor Auth. Just Gmail's second layer of security for trying to protect a sign-in when it looks like a new device/location. Is this something that happens at home or work more often? Wonder if your IP address is getting rotated a lot. Otherwise I'd expect it to remember your device more readily.
I also wonder if google might not run that separate check if you set up true 2FA... might be worth trying (as much of a pain as it might seem).
I'm not as masochistic as mako, but I just finished an emergency trip to CLT after the Au Pair's flight back from NY got delayed then cancelled. Her transportation fell completely threw. Called me in tears. Dad reflex was impossible to ignore.
I didn’t win $1.2 billion
Wait. You have an au pair?
I’m up stoking my fire.
