I'm facing a strange issue where my iPhone is being identified as a Galaxy S20 when I attempt to sign into my Google account on a school computer. It's saying that a code was sent to a Galaxy phone, but I've never owned one. Can anyone help me figure out what's going on?

Just use the code that’s sent to your actual phone. If it's going to a Galaxy, there’s likely an issue with how your account is configured.
It’s not really your phone that’s the problem; it’s the account system incorrectly recognizing your device.
I don’t get what you mean. I'm just trying to log into my Google account on a computer, and it keeps telling me to check the code sent to a Galaxy.
What account are you trying to access? Did you ever have a Galaxy phone before? Sometimes, systems can keep old device info.
No, I've never owned a Galaxy. There was a weird mix-up on my old phone back in 2022 where it confused my mom's device with mine. Now my iPhone seems to always show up as a Galaxy. I just need to log into my Google account for some schoolwork.

I can't because I don't have a Galaxy! It's sending it to a phone I don't own.
