Google just decided to start requiring a phone number for 2-step verification sign in. do you have a suggestion around that? If we sign in to Google Voice on our smart phone, won't google automatically link that phone number with the account we are otherwise using on that phone?
I didn't understand what voicemail is and how you needed a number to create a Google account. In Mexico they don't ask you for any number, you can create a fake account easily and voicemail is only for US
I was planning on using my # and port to GV for 2fA when I move international, however, how will I use google authenticator and/or authy since number will be a GV? This is my first time finding you so if you've covered it pls forward any links. Many thanks!
Man thank you Rob, I couldn't find anything on this topic, but you did it, I swear I hope you get alotta good karma for this, u don't know how thankful I am!
That's all well and good, but I don't have a phone. You're telling me I need to buy a cheap phone.I am computer illiterate (75 yrs old), handicapped and can't operate a cell phone. The video was very good but if I'm to use it I'll have to go thru it very, very slowly. Thanks...I'll work it out...I subscribed!
@@bruceallen6492 You said, gmail won't let me do this anymore and i just wanted to know where they stop you. Are they not allowing you to use the number or don't they forward you the SMS to your phone anymore ?
@@humblephi473 I tried to create a gmail account a few times since 2018. It wans a unique phone number. I tried some numbers that let you watch for a text you can respond to to validate the account. google some how knows when a phone number does not belong to a real person. Solution AFAIK is to buy a burner phone for cash and use that number. Then never allow the burner to be co-located to any electronics associated with the real me. If there is a better way, I'd love to know it
@@bruceallen6492 I understand - I would guess that buying a temp number for $1 and then just getting the SMS there would be the esayest way. I think google knows all the free SMS service numbers
so im about to reach affiliate and im worried im not gonna be able to get my affiliate bc of not having a phone for the 2fa does anyone know if this works for the onboarding for twitch affiliate please let me know A.S.A.P i need one stream for affiliate

Trying 2FA on Twitch, it’s saying I must use a mobile number instead.
Is it possible my GVoice # is a landline that won’t let me do 2FA?
Saw a Google ad on this video
Hi Rob, when I try to set up a gmail it doesn’t offer me the option to skip the phone number verification step. Is there a way to bypass this?
that’s what he says in the video too
I don’t even have a phone number. I never set it up with my provider... so I can’t even do this stuff if I wanted to
Hi Rob your links are reading not found, I'm in the UK
Why get the Google Voice app on your iPhone? Can we skip that altogether and just check Google Voice with computer?

is 2fa with email verification safe?
Not the safest no.

Good information... if only I could afford service for a phone. Don't think I can find a way to do two step without that. Oof. Unemployment sucks.
Sorry to hear. But I'm sure it's only short term. Good luck to you!
Hi, Rob. Did you really born on year of 1990?
Great info! 👍🏾
gmail will not let you do this in 2020 and beyond
whats the problem now ?
Cant you delete your old number or don't they send you the calls anymore?
@@humblephi473 What are you talking about?
