Diane, I don't have an Android so I can't speak with 100% certainty, but if an app password is used I don't think it will ask for the verification code. Since you put in a verification code after entering in your password, I don't think your phone used an app password this time. For some reason it just had an issue with your password. But, everything appears to be fine now and would not worry about it. I would not worry about an app password unless the time comes when you need one. Which I don't think you will.
