How to create Application Password in Google Account without adding phone number

1. Login to https://account.google.com from Desktop PC (Windows, Linux, Mac)

2. Go to Settings->Security https://myaccount.google.com/security

3. Go to 2FA settings: https://myaccount.google.com/signinoptions/twosv

4. Add Authenticator as 2FA method

5. Generate Backup Codes

6 (Optional, you can skip this step): add passkey using hardware token (like Yubikey or any other method)

7. Turn on 2-Step Verification (2FA)

8. In the new tab, go to https://myaccount.google.com/apppasswords
This option is not presented on 2FA page but you can access it directly by this URL

If Google asks for passkey, use passkey. If you don't have one, click "Cancel" and select "Another method"->Password. Enter password

9. Generate new app password and save it


No phone number is required and added to your google account
