Wow, I was wondering why my 2FA wasn't arriving, and I had to use phone call to get my code. Thanks for sharing, Google didn't even bother telling me.

  They could have at least texted you about it!

  Glad to help. Hoping to save others my frustration.

  Curious why you don't have the Google Voice app installed? I also get an email with the text message content too edit: I got a 2FA code earlier today from Amazon so it's definitely working through the app on my phone and desktop (in case there was any confusion about that)

    So receiving texts still works with the app? Makes the cited "spam problem" reason for killing forwarding pretty weak.
    • weird-eye-issue 5y ago
      Not sure why you think that. There is a big difference between their service getting incoming spam texts and their service getting incoming spam texts and then forwarding it out through the phone networks.

        To a verified phone number of the same end user. Keep in mind they are still forwarding calls too.

          I think this is a case of "The details are what matters and we don't have the details"
