  The 2SV mechanism you're using is called 'Google prompt', i.e. you get
a prompt on your device(s).

  See the '2-Step Verification' section of your Google account [1].
There you will see 'Google prompt' as one of the options in 'Second
steps'. It will list the number of devices which can get the prompt and
('>') which devices (in my case my phone and a tablet).
