Can't login to Google with two-factor authentication

Open sskelton90 opened this issue 12 years ago • 4 comments

I have tried logging in with my Google account using my correct username and password but I get an error that login failed. I use two-factor authentication on my Google account so I believe it may be related to this.

Yep, an application specific password works. Still, it crashes after the playlist screen for me so will keep trying ;)

@aericson: I don't think it's a bypass. It's a official method of login in for 3rd-party applications, I think.

This bug should really be changed so that Portify includes information about app-specific passwords, becoause some people might not be aware of it.

@dpc that's what I meant, bypass for portify as it should tell user to use app-specific instead
