The functions that are affected by other than the above-mentioned Google apps are as follows.

After September 27th, you can use Google services such as Gmail from your browser. Also, according to Liliputing, an IT news site, you will not be able to sign in, so if you sign in in advance, you may be able to continue using the app. Even so, if you sign out for something, you will not be able to use it, so Google says, 'If your device can be updated to Android version 3.0 or later, we recommend updating.'
