Inactive Google Accounts Will Be Deleted

On December 1, 2023, inactive accounts—accounts not used for 2 years—will be deleted. But you can keep your account in “active” status by a variety of simple actions: Reading or sending an email; using Google Drive; watching a YouTube video; sharing a photo; downloading an app; using Google Search; using Sign in with Google to sign in to a third-party app or service. If you’ve been inactive, you’ll probably receive emails alerting you to the upcoming deletion…unless you act. #IdeaoftheDay
