Google still offers App Passwords, but their availability is now limited. They require 2-Step Verification (2SV) to be enabled on your personal Google account. However, App Passwords won’t appear if you're using only security keys for 2SV, have Advanced Protection enabled, or are using a work or school-managed account. As of March 2025, Google fully blocked basic authentication for third-party apps, so OAuth is now the preferred method. App Passwords are still allowed in some cases—such as for older apps that don’t support OAuth—but only for personal accounts using standard 2SV. If you don’t see the App Password option, it’s likely due to one of the above restrictions.
