BadAuthentication

If you're receiving a BadAuthentication error when getting the authentication from Google's servers, follow these steps:

1) When signed in to your Google account, visit this page and click "Unlock": https://accounts.google.com/b/0/DisplayUnlockCaptcha

2) Enable 2-step verification

3) Generate a new App Password for "other" at this page: https://security.google.com/settings/security/apppasswords

4) Use that password for the Gmail password when setting up Snap-API.

If you are still facing this error, maybe your account or server its blocked, try with another account/server.

Thanks to all the community for making this possible, we'll keep with the good work :)
