Bhargav I don't think that the two-factor authentication is the problem here. I just finished setting up my google two-factor authentication where you need to enter the code from your phone to login. However the thing is Google provides a special setup for applications which don't have this capability to ask for codes. So you go to account.google.com/security where you can generate an application specific password for your Google account. You can then use this password for logging into in Lightread.

Can you also confirm if this works for you as well?

I will nonetheless keep this bug open since it would be nice to have oauth based authentication. However I believe that the two-factor authentication is not the cause for this bug where the user can't login.
