Why use an App Password?
App Passwords are more secure than your main password. They’re unique, auto-generated, and only give access to specific apps (like Pitchee) without compromising your full Google account.
Prerequisites
Before you begin, ensure:
You have a Gmail (Google) account.
2-Step Verification is enabled on your Google account.
Step-by-Step: Create an App Password
Log in to your Google Account at https://myaccount.google.com
Go to Security > Signing in to Google > App Passwords or visit directly: https://myaccount.google.com/apppasswords
Create 'Pitchee' as a new App Password
Copy the 16-digit code generated by Google and paste it on Pitchee.
Connect Gmail to Pitchee
Log in to your Pitchee account.
Navigate to Sender Accounts.
Click 'Add New Sender'.
Choose Gmail App Password as the method.
Enter:
First Name & Last Name (This can be used as a custom variable for your email creation)
Your Gmail address (e.g., [email protected])
App Password (paste the 16-character app password you generated from Google)
Click 'Add Sender Account'.
✅ Once connected, your Gmail will be verified and ready to send campaigns from Pitchee.
Tips & Troubleshooting
Error logging in? Double-check that:
2-Step Verification is turned ON
You’re using the App Password (not your main Gmail password)
Want to revoke access? Go back to App Passwords in your Google account and remove it.
