I bought a subscription and am trying to log into Google Antigravity IDE. After I select my account and click “Login,” I’m taken to a screen (like the one in the screenshot) where I’m completely stuck. For verification, which the IDE requires for some reason (my account is verified with Google), I’m asked to scan a QR code, which Google uses to send an SMS from my phone to a short number. The problem is that either my phone, my carrier, or something else is blocking SMS messages to these numbers. I’m not ready and don’t want to figure out what’s going on. I’m simply furious that there are NO ALTERNATIVES for this verification! Google has dozens of verification methods, from two-factor authentication to push notifications to your phone, but Antigravity, as usual, took the most difficult route. Ultimately, I bought a subscription and can’t use it because I have no way to get past this verification screen.
Hey Google? What’s the bottom line? How do I start using my subscription? Anyone have an answer?
Okay, I’ve come to terms with the fact that I wasted my money. But that won’t stop me from creating a challenge to post this later and show how much Google doesn’t care about its customers. I’ll write a new post here every day and push this topic to the top until someone solves the problem.
It’s been 3 days since the problem was ignored.
Are you in a country that Google Gemini officially supports?
Google doesn’t even have a support service that oversees ANTIGRAVITY that I can contact if I have a problem. I’ve contacted Google One support and every other possible Google support service, but they just send me standard replies. No one even wants to look into the problem. They tell me I need to check my account (I’ve already checked everything several times), even though that won’t fix the verification button in Antigravity.
It’s been 4 days since my subscription expired, and I still haven’t been able to use it.
More than a week has passed…
Same problem here, no solution yet
2 weeks have passed!
It’s a known issue Antigravity yet not fixed I have discussed these on the , There Was an Unexpected issue setting up your account in Antigravity , here's Fix for Antigravity v2.0.0 issues
So here’s a simple quick solution for it, you gonna have to clear every single antigravity process running in background note : only clossing it wont work, but try to run these cmds if you are the windows USER follow the below steps!
-
Clear all Antigravity services running from task manager
-
Run the following in Power-shell as the Administrator :
Antigravity Cleanup Script
Write-Host "Stopping hanging Antigravity processes..." -ForegroundColor Cyan
Get-Process -Name "Antigravity", "language_server" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue |
Stop-Process -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
Write-Host "Removing only the temp XML artifacts..." -ForegroundColor Cyan
$TempDir = Join-Path $env:LOCALAPPDATA "Temp"
Get-ChildItem -Path $TempDir -File -Filter "xml_file (*.xml)" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue |
Remove-Item -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
Write-Host "Clearing only the updater pending cache..." -ForegroundColor Cyan
$UpdaterPending = Join-Path $env:LOCALAPPDATA "antigravity-updater\pending"
if (Test-Path $UpdaterPending) {
Remove-Item -Path $UpdaterPending -Recurse -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
}
Write-Host "Cleanup complete. User data folders were not touched." -ForegroundColor Green
3. Restart and try signup your account freshly!
What it does
-
Kills all running Antigravity IDE and language server processes that may be stuck.
-
Deletes hundreds of temporary XML files created by the failed polling/retry loop.
-
Removes the updater cache so the next installation starts fresh.
-
Prints status messages during each step.

I managed to get around this problem by verifying my account on my iPhone. It doesn’t matter what account is on that phone. The same QR verification process behaves differently on different devices. On Android, it leads to a dead-end (for us) SMS sending process. On iPhone, it simply completes the verification process and the account starts working. I don’t know what the point of this “verification” is if it’s not even my account on that phone; it’s just more Google nonsense.
Thanks for the reply, but these are different issues. In my case, the authorization itself is fine, and my accounts connect normally. The problem is that I can’t complete verification (on some accounts) because the only way I can complete it is by sending an SMS from my phone. This option is blocked by my mobile operator.
After 2 weeks of personal experimentation, I found the solution to this problem on my own. I just want to state that during all this time, not a single Google employee gave me an answer, neither by email (I opened more than 5 tickets during this period) nor on the forum. Buyers of Google products are simply abandoned to their fate with their problems.
In my case, in iPhone, the process also asks for sending a SMS, so I can’t complete it 
what did you do? I have the same problem, they took the money and that’s about it.
