In recent weeks, it seems that talking about Gmail has become more than recurrent. On the one hand, we find that on April 2, Google Inbox will stop working, being Gmail the application that most users will adopt of this platform. On the other hand, we see how in future updates, Gmail could implement the possibility of scheduling shipments.
Today we have to talk about bad news related to Google's mail service, at least for users of the integration offered by IFTTT, since on March 31 this integration will stop working completely. The If This Then That service will stop working because Google has announced that This third-party service will not be able to connect with IFTTT to automate tasks.
Thanks to the integration of Gmail with IFTTT we could save automatically all the attachments of the emails we receive, create reminders, send notifications, manage the calendar among many other functions.
The move Google has made is disappointing, and it is probably due to the security breaches that have recently surrounded the social network Google+ which is about to close its doors. The IFTTT service has confirmed that the integration with Gmail will no longer be available from March 31 on its own blog. Only the functions will be available Send an e-mail y Send yourself.
If you regularly use the Gmail integration with IFTTT to automate tasks, you will have to look for an alternative Before the service deactivates most of the most useful functions of this service, but the thing at the moment does not seem simple, since Gmail itself does not offer us alternatives from the service itself without having to resort to a computer.
For now, It seems that the rest of the functions that it offers us with Google, Google Drive and more will continue to be available.
