Gmail Adds 'Copy Code' Button for 2FA Emails on Android and iOS

Gmail added a “Copy code” button for 2FA emails on Android and iOS, letting users copy codes without opening messages.

The button appears as a pill-shaped “Copy code: 000000” label beneath the email’s subject line, in the same area Gmail uses for attachment previews and other contextual actions. Android Authority reported that the feature is appearing in Gmail for Android version 2026.09.07.x and iOS version 6.0.260907. It is not available on the web yet.

Two-factor authentication is intended to keep accounts safer, but the last step can still require users to open a message, read the code, and return to the app or site where they need it. Gmail’s shortcut places the copy action in the inbox view, so the code can be copied without opening the email first. The label includes the code itself, giving users a direct control for the task.

The change follows other Gmail updates this month. Android Authority reported that Gmail has added Live voice features and Gemini-powered inbox answers to make email easier to navigate. The Copy code button is another small adjustment to a common email task.

The rollout is limited to the Gmail apps on Android and iOS at this stage. The report did not say when the feature might reach the web, where users still need to open a message to retrieve a two-factor authentication code. The shortcut is present in the reported app versions and is not described as a broad web release.
