If you’re using an Android device that’s still running a version of the OS of a particular age or older, you’re certain some trouble – starting in the week. In the week (actually starting on the 27th of September, 2021), Google began removing Google Account access from older Android devices. The cut-off point is Android 2.3.7 – Gingerbread – meaning you’d need to have a significantly aged Android device for this example to be a problem.
Google accounts on Android devices with Android 2.3.7 and lower will not be ready to check-in, starting in the week. If you plan to perform one among a series of tasks together with your device starting in the week, you’ll likely get errored out. Meaning you’ll have significant trouble finishing the tasks as they’re attempted.
If you plan to check in to Gmail, Google Maps, or YouTube, you’ll likely get a mistake. If you plan to add a Google account or create a replacement Google account on your device, you’ll likely see a mistake. Trying to check in after changing a Google account password will not work.
If you plan to log in to Google anywhere aside from in your device’s browser, you’ll almost certainly see errors from now forward. In some cases – but not all – you’ll still attend your smartphone’s browser and log in to Google services.
This is often not the perfect solution. Still, the apps will not allow you to log in together with your Google account on an Android device that’s running an old version of Android at any point within the future.

Make sure you’ve reset the device before getting prevent it, in any case! And DON’T throws your old phone directly in the trash, and they will explode if discarded with their battery still inside!
