I'm wondering if I can turn off 2-step authentification now.

I'm curious about the same thing -- I suspect not, and not sure when / if I'll
test it.  It would be nice if someone knew.

that's the thing: I don't understand how the parts fit together; what is the connection between:

(1) 2-step auth
(2) app-specific pw

I would have thought method (1) is good for getting back on board if you lose your pw.

method (2) just seems like using a pw like one always does except it's handed to you.

I may go empirical and try to cancel 2-step and see.

I'd rather learn from others.
