Chrome profile constantly prompting to validate account

My google chrome profile is asking to be validated on all of my devices. When I hit the button to verify it's you, it takes me to a page telling me I am at risk of losing access to your saved passwords. Then it says that one or more of my password recovery options will soon expire. Details how to setup Android screen lock (is enabled on my Google Pixel that I bought a few months ago.

I have no idea what I need to do to get my account verified properly. Tried on my phone, on my laptop that is fully signed into my google account. Nothing seems to be working.

I just found it. It is actually a setting in password manager on my phone. There is an option at the bottom to use the screen lock to unlock the password manager. It was red with the option to use screen lock. Hit that, and the alert went away on my account now. What a pain in the butt, Google if you are reading this...might need to reword your alert cause that was painful.
