Unable to activate Inbox Sync?

Google

If you have Google's Advanced Protection Program enabled, this feature may prevent third-party apps, including ours, from connecting with your inbox. The only workaround is to disable Advanced Protection. If you'd like to keep this feature, you can always add trips by forwarding your confirmation emails to plans@tripit.com.

Notes

• Inbox Sync will not give TripIt access to your email account password.
• Inbox Sync is an optional feature you elect to authorize and is not required to use TripIt.
• Once authorized, import is not immediate. You can expect your travel bookings to be imported within 24 hours
• At sign up, TripIt will look for travel-related emails you received in the last 7 days, regardless of travel date (future or past).
• Please make sure your travel confirmation emails are in your main inbox and not a folder or label.
