How can I stop Google from asking for login confirmation on another device?

Hey everyone! I'm really frustrated with Google's login process. Whenever I try to access my account on a different device, it keeps asking me for a confirmation number sent to another device, even though I have a passkey on my phone. It feels like I'm stuck because I can't proceed without that confirmation. Do I really need to carry an extra device with me all the time, or is there a way to opt out of this situation? I'm starting to think I might just abandon Google services altogether if this doesn't get resolved.

You should look into changing your two-factor authentication settings. That might help reduce those prompts. A lot of users have found success by tweaking their security options.

CuriousCoder88: What exact settings do you mean? I've tried different ones and still get stuck needing confirmation on those devices.
