From 39ab6e037bec2ca60e17aab4853bf3c906de1cbc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: FriendlyNeighborhoodShane Date: Wed, 7 Jul 2021 20:46:42 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] install.md: update DAVx5 login instructions The older method now required turning off 2FA which should not be recommended in any case. App passwords are a much better alternative to use here. This should have been updated long ago as I myself haven't been using this method ever since 2FA. --- install.md | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/install.md b/install.md index 2e5172e..f6440b5 100644 --- a/install.md +++ b/install.md @@ -163,11 +163,11 @@ You can retieve your contacts directly from your Google account in a vcf file: - Use sidebar > Export > select 'Export as VCard' > Export You should also be able to sync contacts with Google without proprietary apps or microG using the open-source CardDAV client DAVdroid (available on F-Droid or Play) - - First of all, go to Google dashboard's [less secure apps setting](https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps) with your account and enable the setting + - Go to Google Dashboard's [app passwords](https://myaccount.google.com/apppasswords) page, and create an app password if you don't have one already - When logging in with DAVDroid, Use "Login with URL and user name" - Base URL: `https://www.google.com/calendar/dav/[your_gmail_id]@gmail.com/events` - User name: `[your_gmail_id]@gmail.com` - - Password: `[your_google_password]` + - Password: `[your_app_password]` ##### Android Wear companion apps - GatgetBridge companion app on F-Droid
