[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1936404, member: 204485"] The reason I ask is because for some time Google has offered the "Sign in with Google" as an option for signing in to other Google apps and services on mobile devices. It's confusing because the language used “Sign in with Google.” is ambiguous. Google what? Well they're referring to the Google App pictured in my previous post. See if this article shines any light on the problem; [URL unfurl="true"]https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185833?hl=en#zippy=%2Cwhy-you-may-need-an-app-password[/URL] It's just possible that because you have 2FA set up for Google you [I]may[/I] need to create an app specific password for Mail on your iPhone but it's quite clear from my searching that this problem is a long standing one created primarily by Google themselves. There are hundreds of articles dating back to 2020 with the same problem. I have read that resetting CAPTCHA can sometimes solve the problem, maybe worth a shot.
