Google has officially begun notifying users who have smartphones and tablets running Android 2.3.7 Gingerbread or earlier that support for Google-signed apps will be inaccessible, preventing login to the account and related services.
Zak Pollack, community manager at the official Android help forum, said that as of September 27, 2021, users who try to log in to their devices may receive username or password errors when trying to use Android products and services. Google, like Gmail, YouTube and Maps. With this, the recommended for users who are included in this group is to check if your device has any pending updates available (devices with Android 3.0 Honeycomb (for tablets) or Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwach and higher, or resort to custom ROMs if not there are official versions available.
why there is no notification on my part? one of my Smartphone still under gingerbread android but i still not receiving any from Google support team.
I think the correct thing would be to jump to 4.0, because most users use versions higher than 8
