What is App-Specific Password?
App-specific passwords add an extra layer of security to your Gmail account. They allow you to sign in to your account and securely access information stored in Gmail from a third-party app. App-specific passwords maintain a high level of security and help ensure your Gmail account password won’t be collected or stored by any third-party apps you use.
How to Generate an App-Specific Password?

Step 9. On the Security page and in the Signing in to Google section, you will see an App-passwords option.
