 * So as of May 30th 2022 google is discontinuing less secure apps, even though 
   I have to set up OAuth 2.0 with the app it still asks me to login to gmail using
   the less secure method. Will my emails stop sending with the plugin due to this?

 * [@bsimp6983](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bsimp6983/) Hi,
 * Hope you are doing good.
 * Google will no longer support the use of third-party apps or devices which ask
   you to sign in to your Google Account using only your username and password so
   there are no issues with Auth connectivity it will work fine, and we are working
   on our plugin new features, we will release an updated version soon.
 * Thanks
