What do you mean by "google push app"? Are you referring to Google Authenticator? The reason I ask is that I also removed 2FA SMS from my account and instead use the Google app whether to authorize the login or not.

Google supports push notifications to the "google" search app. It's not authenticator. Also it only supports google accounts.

When signing in from an unknown location, the app pops up and says "are you trying to sign in?" Just click yes.
