I was trying to make an app-specific password for gmail and this came up. There aren’t any new options in the apple id settings, so idk what to do

Worthless comment is worthless.

    I mean, you should drop any company that forces you to use only their devices to access services that aren't exclusive to those devices.

    This stinks of antitrust behavior to me.

    I'm not sure what accidental journey through Gmail's options OP took but it looks to me that they inadvertently started setting up a passkey, which is tied to the hardware but can sync between Apple devices using iCloud Keychain. Apple certainly isn't blocking you from changing Gmail-specific settings.
