Email sending
This page explains what a Gmail app password is, why Google requires it, and exactly how Icebreakr uses it for sending emails.
A Gmail app password is a 16-character code that Google generates so that a specific app (like Icebreakr) can send emails from your Gmail account without using your main Google password.
App passwords are only available when you have 2-Step Verification turned on. They are scoped to the app you create them for and can be revoked at any time in your Google Account settings.
When you sign in with Google, Icebreakr sends emails through Gmail's SMTP servers so that campaigns come from your real email address. Using an app password keeps your main Google password private while still letting Icebreakr send the specific emails you approve inside the app.
Your Gmail app password is encrypted using industry standard AES-256-GCM and is only accessed when Icebreakr sends the campaign emails you have explicitly reviewed and approved in the app. Your password is never stored in plaintext.
Yes. You can revoke your Gmail app password at any time from the App passwords page in your Google Account. Once revoked, Icebreakr will no longer be able to send emails from your Gmail until you create and verify a new app password in your profile.
