## Overview Google may send a “Security alert” when you first sign in to your Google account in LDPlayer. Google can send this alert because the emulator is a new device to your account. The publisher describes the alert as normal. This guide shows how to check that the alert matches your LDPlayer instance.
## Verify The device model in the alert matches your LDPlayer instance, and the time and location match your session. Then the sign-in came from your instance.
## Why Google sends the alert
Google checks new sign-ins against the devices it already knows. An LDPlayer instance is a new virtual device, so the first sign-in can trigger an alert. According to the publisher, this alert is a normal notice. It does not mean your account was breached. Confirm the details in the steps before you move on.
## What to expect
When the device model, time, and place match your session, you can use Google Play and your games in the instance as usual. If any detail does not match, treat the sign-in as unexpected. Open Google Account > Security, review recent activity, and change your password if you do not recognize the activity.
