WOW 09 - Google Password Recovery Options
Good Afternoon Friends,
Today, I'm going to talk about an option that Google recently added to its services.
Using this service you would be able to "Receive a text message with a password-reset code on your mobile phone." Yeah, that's correct, you read the right "Mobile Phone" is the word. The process is pretty simple. I shall explain that in steps below:
1) Let you browser's address bar show "https://www.google.com/accounts/ManageAccount"
2) Under Personal Settings, Under Security, find the option "Change password Recovery options"
3) Verify your account by confirming your password.
4) Add your Mobile number under SMS and check the option "Use this phone number for password recovery via text message."
Now, next time you forget your password, head to the link: "https://www.google.com/accounts/ForgotPasswd?fpOnly=1". Enter your EMail ID and once it is done you would be receiving a text message from Google with your Account Recovery code.
Wasn't that simple.
