Getting this error:
gkeepapi.exception.LoginException: ('NeedsBrowser', 'To access your account, you must sign in on the web. Touch Next to start browser sign-in.')
I'm definitely using the correct app password. If I wasn't, I'd get a different error. I've set up 2 different Google Keep backup solutions using other Github projects and they all worked fine, but then recently they broke because of the exact same error. I think perhaps something is changed on Google's side.
I will look into it tomorrow
