As of 1/15/16 every time I open Firefox and try to log onto one of my Google accounts, I am prompted to enter my six digit code for two-step authentication. I have marked this as one of my trusted computers, and this is not been an issue in the past couple of years that I've been using two-step verification. I did not make any recent changes to privacy settings or cookies. Does anyone else have this problem, and is it related to a recent Firefox update?

Hi

This does not sound like an issue to do with the Firefox for Android browser, but more like something to do with your Google account settings.

I recommend you have a look at the Google support pages which may be able to help with this.
