I got locked out of my Gmail account because my iPhone didn't save its suggested password

I am locked out of my email on all devices after resetting my gmail password and using the “strong” password iPhone suggests only thing is the iPhone did not save the password and I can’t verify my account. It ask for my phone number which I give and get the code THEN it ask for my alternative email or recovery email to which I guess I entered in wrong because I never receive the email.

If you are the owner or the owner has shared all information with you then to open Activation Lock:- If it is Activation locked, read here --> Turn off Activation Lock - Apple Support Activation Lock for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support


Learn how to remove a device from a previous owner's account.


If you are not the owner and do not have the Apple ID and Password then there is no way that you can get into this iPhone unless the original owner shares the Apple ID and password with you. If you are lucky you can get into this iPhone if they (owner) accidentally remove the device from their Apple ID.
