I see a "First time signing in with this device?" message

When you try to sign in from a device, browser, or location that we haven't seen you use before, we may ask you to enter a verification code, sent to your recovery phone or email, to verify that it's really you. Choose where to send your verification code, and then enter the code we send you in the field provided.

"Remember me?" to save sign-in information is now "Stay signed in."

The option to save your sign-in information has changed from "Remember me?" to "Stay signed in." If you want to save your sign-in information, choose "Stay signed in" on the screen where you enter your username.

Two-step verification is turned on but I'm not asked to enter a verification code

You may notice some changes to two-step verification when you sign in to your account. You'll now be sent a verification code to enter the first time you sign in from a device, browser, or location we haven't seen you use before. After successful verification and account sign-in, you may not be prompted to enter a verification code again when you sign in using the same device, browser, or location. If you'd like to deuathorize a device, browser, or location, you can do this by signing out of the device from your updated Recent activity page.
