In the last article I showed you how to activate Two-Step verification for your Google account. Now I'm going to show you how to create and use an application-specific password for Gmail.
Log into your Google account at myaccount.google.com:
Go to Security in the left sidebar. 2-Step Verification must be on.
Click on 2-Step Verification and scroll down to the bottom:
Now click on App passwords. Enter the name of the application.
Click on Generate:
Now you can use the app password in the application.
