To protect against this, any sign-ins being attempted from a new location or device will require additional information before access is granted. Google knows that, sometimes, a person other than you will try and access your account. If you’re signing in from a new location or device Turn this access on, and you’re all set no more annoying emails and notifications. You can do this by simply heading over to your Google account settings and clicking Sign-in and security.įrom here, scroll all the way down to Allow less secure apps. This is a problem for those of us who use Gmail through the Mail app, with Google now blocking sign-in attempts that it believes pose a risk to your account security. So, unless you want to be notified daily by Google that login attempts have been blocked, and be pestered by the Mail app for your Gmail password, you need to allow less secure apps access to your account. Frustration deriving from the Mail app is fairly commonplace on Apple’s operating systems, and it appears that Google has thrown another spanner in the works by changing how it deals with apps and services that don’t use so-called “modern security standards”. According to Google, since some apps and devices are easier to break into, blocking their access helps keep your account safer.
