How Google Uses OAuth

Google has updated its account settings to allow U.S. users to change their @gmail.com usernames while keeping all existing account data and inboxes intact. For developers, this means that while old email addresses will remain active as aliases, apps that rely solely on email addresses for identification may face issues with account duplication or lost access. To ensure a seamless user experience, Google recommends migrating to the "subject ID" as the primary user identifier and allowing users to manually update their contact information within app settings.
