Unable to login to my Gmail account using my Apple Account

I tried to log in multiple times, but it keeps telling me to verify using an android. keep in mind ive never used android before yet thats the only thing i can do. it gives me a step by step but i cant even follow it myself and "trying another way" does not help whatsoever.


i tried going to the account recovery page but it just tells me i didnt provide enough info.

please dont reply with "i have the same problem too!" i want solutions, not your problems

Your images are showing a broken icon so I can't right now see what they show.


If you are trying to log into a Gmail account, why are you asking about this on Apple's site? Or do you mean you are using Gmail as your account identifier Apple ID (in which case it doesn't really matter who is providing the email address and was a bit of a red herring on your part)? If that is the case, I very much doubt Apple is referring you to an Android telephone, unless this is another red herring and you mean it you happen to be using an Android phone as a trusted phone number.


Apple Account recovery will require proof that you are the account owner and that you have some way that is acceptable to Apple for proving that. Apparently you do not. Unless you can come up with something that is acceptable, you may find you just have to create a new account.


If this is about a Google account I suggest you contact Google Support; click here --> https://support.google.com/


If this is about an Apple account, you are welcome to contact Apple and see if they have any alternatives for you. Refer to this page for Apple Support features ➔ Contact - Official Apple Support

Select from the presented options until you find a solution for your issue, or see if there is a chat or phone call contact method offered lower on the page (you sometimes have to narrow down the options multiple times before this is shown). If you do not see your issue, keep experimenting with any series of selections until you reach one that offers a chat session or a telephone call and get the representative to redirect you.
