This antiquated sign-in method, known as Less Secure Apps (LSAs), puts users at an additional risk since it requires sharing Google Account credentials with third-party apps and devices that can make it easier for bad actors to gain unauthorized access to your account. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Instead, you’ll need to use the option to Sign-In with Google, which is a safer and more secure way to sync your email to other apps. Sign-in with Google leverages industry standard and more secure OAuth method of authentication already used by the vast majority of third-party apps and devices. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>We <a href="https://workspaceupdates.googleblog.com/2019/12/less-secure-apps-oauth-google-username-password-incorrect.html">previously announced this change in 2019</a>, and are now ready to share an updated timeline regarding this change:</div><div><br /></div><div><div><b><br /></b></div><div><b>Access to Less Secure Apps (LSA) will be turned off in two stages: </b></div><div><ol style="text-align: left;"><li><b>Beginning June 15, 2024:</b></li><ul><li>The LSA settings will be removed from the Admin console and can no longer be changed.

This antiquated sign-in method, known as Less Secure Apps (LSAs), puts users at an additional risk since it requires sharing Google Account credentials with third-party apps and devices that can make it easier for bad actors to gain unauthorized access to your account. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Instead, you’ll need to use the option to Sign-In with Google, which is a safer and more secure way to sync your email to other apps. Sign-in with Google leverages industry standard and more secure OAuth method of authentication already used by the vast majority of third-party apps and devices. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>We <a href="https://workspaceupdates.googleblog.com/2019/12/less-secure-apps-oauth-google-username-password-incorrect.html">previously announced this change in 2019</a>, and are now ready to share an updated timeline regarding this change:</div><div><br /></div><div><div><b><br /></b></div><div><b>Access to Less Secure Apps (LSA) will be turned off in two stages: </b></div><div><ol style="text-align: left;"><li><b>Beginning June 15, 2024:</b></li><ul><li>The LSA settings will be removed from the Admin console and can no longer be changed.

We’d like to share more information regarding the migration, what to expect, as well as what’s next for Google Chat. </div><div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: left;"><br /></h3><h3 style="text-align: left;">Who’s impacted </h3><div>Admins and end users </div><div><br /></div><div><h3 style="text-align: left;"><br /></h3><h3 style="text-align: left;">Why it’s important</h3><div>Whether it’s a 1:1 conversation  or a space, Google Chat plays a critical role in collaborating and communicating. Our goal is to continue evolving Chat to best serve our users and keep teams productive and connected. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>As such, we’ve heard from our customers that the way conversations were structured in spaces could be improved. Specifically, users found topic-based conversations to be restrictive and tricky to navigate. With topic-based conversations users would struggle to keep track of individual topics as new replies were added, and often find themselves scrolling back through threads to locate relevant topics.. Over time, topic threads have become noisier and more complex for many users.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>What became clear was the need for a continuous conversation flow. In-line threading allows users to reply to any message and create a discussion separate from the main conversation and users have reported a much higher satisfaction rate as compared to topic-based spaces. Users can also follow specific threads, whereby they’ll receive notifications for replies and @ mentions in that thread, helping to cut through clutter and stay on top of what matters most.</div><div><br /></div><div><h3 style="text-align: left;"><br /></h3><h3 style="text-align: left;">What to expect during the upgrade period</h3><div>Beginning <b>September 30, 2023</b> we will begin upgrading conversations grouped by topic to in-line threading. We anticipate this change to be completed by <b>March 2024</b>. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>In order to minimize disruptions on day-to-day work, we will do our best to initiate upgrades during off-peak times on weekends.

We’d like to share more information regarding the migration, what to expect, as well as what’s next for Google Chat. </div><div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: left;"><br /></h3><h3 style="text-align: left;">Who’s impacted </h3><div>Admins and end users </div><div><br /></div><div><h3 style="text-align: left;"><br /></h3><h3 style="text-align: left;">Why it’s important</h3><div>Whether it’s a 1:1 conversation  or a space, Google Chat plays a critical role in collaborating and communicating. Our goal is to continue evolving Chat to best serve our users and keep teams productive and connected. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>As such, we’ve heard from our customers that the way conversations were structured in spaces could be improved. Specifically, users found topic-based conversations to be restrictive and tricky to navigate. With topic-based conversations users would struggle to keep track of individual topics as new replies were added, and often find themselves scrolling back through threads to locate relevant topics.. Over time, topic threads have become noisier and more complex for many users.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>What became clear was the need for a continuous conversation flow. In-line threading allows users to reply to any message and create a discussion separate from the main conversation and users have reported a much higher satisfaction rate as compared to topic-based spaces. Users can also follow specific threads, whereby they’ll receive notifications for replies and @ mentions in that thread, helping to cut through clutter and stay on top of what matters most.</div><div><br /></div><div><h3 style="text-align: left;"><br /></h3><h3 style="text-align: left;">What to expect during the upgrade period</h3><div>Beginning <b>September 30, 2023</b> we will begin upgrading conversations grouped by topic to in-line threading. We anticipate this change to be completed by <b>March 2024</b>. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>In order to minimize disruptions on day-to-day work, we will do our best to initiate upgrades during off-peak times on weekends.

With built-in Google AI features, studio-grade audio, and seamless video conferencing through Google Meet, these devices are designed for immersive team collaboration.</div><div> </div><div>Today, we’re announcing that FigJam, Lucidspark, and Miro will create integrations for these devices, with expected delivery at the end of 2023 and early 2024 — we’ll keep you posted on the availability here on the Workspace Updates blog. Soon you’ll not only have a choice of three robust third-party whiteboarding experiences inside a Meet call, you’ll also have new options to use them outside a call as standalone whiteboarding tools on the Board 65 and Desk 27.</div></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><h3 style="text-align: left;">Transition timeline</h3><div><b>Jamboard device: </b></div><div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>All Jamboard device license subscriptions (including education licenses) will end on <b>September 30, 2024</b>.

At this time, we will also remove Jamboard device management from the Admin console, leaving the device with limited functionality. Our <a href="https://support.google.com/a/answer/13342662">FAQ page</a> contains details on how you can continue to use your 55-inch Jamboard device beyond its AUE date.<br /><br /></li><li>Those looking for an alternative to the 55-inch Jamboard device can upgrade to the Google Meet Series One <a href="https://www.avocor.com/products/google-series-one-board-65/">Board 65</a> and <a href="https://www.avocor.com/products/google-series-one-desk-27/">Desk 27</a> devices by Avocor. Both devices will have integrations with our partners’ whiteboarding software to replace the Jamboard app. We will follow up as we approach the AUE date with reminders and updates.<br /><br /></li></ul><h3 style="text-align: left;">Jamboard app</h3><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Starting <b>October 1, 2024</b>, you’ll no longer be able to create new or edit existing Jams on any platform, including the web, iOS, and Android. </li><li>Between <b>October 1, 2024, and December 31, 2024</b>, the app will be placed in “view-only” mode, during which time you will still be able to backup your Jam files. <a href="https://workspace.google.com/blog/product-announcements/next-phase-digital-whiteboarding">Learn more</a>.</li><li><b>On December 31, 2024</b>, we will wind down the Jamboard application, meaning your users will no longer be able to access their Jam files and Jam files will be permanently deleted.
