    G-Suite, Google’s product aimed at enterprise customers has announced that it will shut down old apps. The shutdown will touch both mobile and desktop G-Suite apps.

    In a blog post, Google cited changes to its API as well as service infrastructure. These changes were meant to improve performance and security.

    “As a result of these changes, some older versions of G Suite desktop and mobile apps may stop working on August 12, 2020. In particular, versions released prior to December 2018 may be impacted,” the company said.

    The company advises G-Suite admins to notify their users to update these apps before the deadline:

    • Classroom iOS app
    • Docs Android and iOS apps
    • Drive Android and iOS apps
    • Drive File Stream desktop app
    • Gmail iOS app
    • Sheets Android and iOS apps
    • Slides Android and iOS apps

    Admins that deploy Drive Fle Stream are also advised to ensure they’re using the latest version.
