2-Step Verification has been enabled for your account

Google Accounts Luke Hendri
Hi Luke,

Congratulations on enabling 2-Step Verification for lhsetiadi@gmail.com! We have a few suggestions to make sure you can always access your account.

What if an app stops working

Now that you have 2-Step Verification, you may have trouble accessing your account from some apps, such as:
  • "Mail" on iPhone, iPad, or Mac;
  • Chat clients (e.g., Adium).
To get your apps working again, you'll need something called an application-specific password. Don't worry—we'll generate one for you, and you won't need to remember it. Get started now.

Set up a backup phone

If your primary phone is ever unavailable when you need a code, Google can send one to a backup, like your home or work phone or even a family member's phone. To set one up,
  1. Go to your 2-Step Verification settings page and sign in.
  2. Click on Add a phone number in the Backup phones section.

Get backup codes

If you don't have access to your primary or backup phones—such as when you're traveling—you can sign in with a backup code. You can keep them in your wallet or save them as a file on your computer. To get your backup codes,
  1. Go to the 2-Step Verification settings page.
  2. Click on Show/Generate codes.
Learn more about 2-Step Verification and update your settings at any time.

Sincerely,
The Google Accounts team
