Google has disconnected smartphones with old version of Android from its services

From today, September 27, 2021, Google has disconnected from its branded services devices that run on older versions of Android - starting with Android 2.3.7 Gingerbread.

Users of such devices are no longer able to log into their accounts of services such as Google Maps, YouTube, and Gmail.
