GMAIL, Google Calendar, Google Maps and YouTube apps will stop working on some older Android smartphones from September 27, Google has confirmed.

If you've been struggling on with an older version of Android, the end of the road is finally here. Google has confirmed plans to block users from signing in with their Google Account on these devices. This will cause a slew of popular apps, from Google Maps to YouTube, to immediately stop working. WhatsApp abandoned this ageing version of Android last year.

Anyone with a smartphone powered by Android 2.3 will be impacted by the latest change. The operating system, launched under the "Gingerbread" brand back when Google used to use dessert names for each major iteration of Android, first launched in December 2010.

Google says it's now withdrawing support for the platform "as part of our going efforts to keep our users safe". In February 2017, it suspended Google Pay contactless payments from working on any handsets running Android 2.3. From September 27, the Californian company has confirmed plans to block all users from signing in with a Google Account.

Later this month, users who try to login to their Android device will receive a username and password error – even though the details they have entered will be correct. Trying to add a Google Calendar or Gmail account to the settings menu of the device will also trigger the same error. A number of other popular Google-made apps that rely on the Google Account, including YouTube, Google Play Store, Google Maps, Gmail, Google Calendar, and more, will also stop working.
