How to Skip the Second Step on Trusted Devices?
When you make your laptop a trusted device, you won’t have to enter a security code every time you try to access sensitive data, like credit card information or any other personal information.
Setting your PC to be a trusted device may be useful if you use it frequently when you have two-step verification enabled.
Here’s the way to do it:
Step 1: You need to set this device as a trusted device. In order to do that, simply visit the security settings page and sign in to your Google account.
Step 2: You will be asked to verify that it’s you. Choose the platform through which you want to receive the code; it can be via email, text, or phone call. Once you have received the code, type it in the text box.
Step 3: Select the check box for ‘Don’t question me again on this device’.
Step 4: Click on ‘Verify’.
Step 5: You can now sign in and edit your information on this device whenever you want without entering the security code.
How To Enable Two-Factor Authentication on Android
Two-factor authentication is an extra layer of protection for your devices that requires an extra step to login. After entering a password to log in, you’ll be requested to offer a security key that may take the form of a numerical code, barcode, QR code, or other piece of information. Once you provide the right data, you will be granted access to the account.
If a password is stolen or leaked online by a hacker and someone else is making an attempt to log in to your account, they won’t be able to do so without two-factor authentication. Read below this comprehensive article to find out how to enable two-factor authentication on Android.
