    I’ve been reviewing the security of my Gmail account all day and noticed an unfamiliar device logged in. I immediately signed it out and changed my password. Additionally, there’s a suspicious third-party app—'project-91437183826'—that keeps showing up in my account settings, and I’ve been deleting it each time. Does anyone have any idea what this could be or how I can stop it from reappearing?Thank you in advance.

    That 3rd party app is likely to be a plugin you're using to do mail merges, back up contacts etc and you've likely forgotten it exists. Odd that you get rid of it and it pops right back up.

    I do! There's a nifty tool that connects a google drive sheet with gmail to send them and even tracks if they've been open, and clicked!

    Over the years, I've used other tools with gmail and I can imagine there might be a few "projects" i need to delete within the google api system that might possibly connect to gmail or google docs.
