Third-Party Apps

Manage which external applications have access to your Google account data.

What are Third-Party Apps?

Third-party applications and services (e.g., productivity tools, games, or utilities) may request access to your account to perform actions or use stored information. Google allows control over these access points for security purposes.

Why Google Allows App Access

Google enables third-party access so you can integrate services into apps or devices while still maintaining control. For example, a fitness app might request access to your location or search history for personalized features.

Security Best Practices

Always Review Permissions

Before granting new app access, ensure you understand its needs and scope.

Revoke Unused Access

Remove apps you no longer use to reduce potential security risks.

You can find detailed security guidelines for third-party apps in your Security settings.
