Google has recently added a new feature to Gmail, which will help you recover your password via text message.

Until now you could recover your lost password either by receiving a link to your secondary email address or by answering the security questions.

This work has been done easier, instead of lengthy procedure of answering the security questions or accessing your secondary email id. You will have to simply enter a special verification code which will be sent to your mobile number.

To activate this feature, just sign in to your Gmail account and go to account settings page. Click on ‘Change Password Recovery Options’, you will be redirected towards password recovery page; here you will find an option to add your cell number.

Once this feature is activated, whenever you forget your Gmail account password, you will receive a special recovery code.
