If you open your Gmail today, there is chance that you’ll seeing this notification to update your secondary email address for the purpose of password recovery/reset on top of your mailbox screen.

This is the first time I notice this notification appear there, and probably part of Google effort to remind users, to enter correct secondary email for password recovery purpose of your Google account in case of any incidents that leads you to miss/forgotten the password.

This recovery process included using text message/SMS announced recently. It still not available here in Malaysia though, where email is the only method to reset the password.

If you click on ‘Update this address’, it will bring you to another screen below, where you can verify your email and enter you mobile number. Once yo update, the notification no longer showing up there.

Do you notice this??
