Why my Google Authenticator code for 2FA doesn't work?

Google Authenticator code may not work because the time isn’t correctly synced on your Google Authenticator app.
​
To set the correct time:
  1. On your Android device, go to the main menu  of the Google Authenticator app.
  2. Tap More More and then Settings and then Time correction for codes and then Sync now.
On the next screen, the app confirms the time has been synced. You should be able to sign in. The sync will only affect the internal time of your Google Authenticator app, and will not change your device’s Date & Time settings.
