Hello,

We're writing to let you know about some upcoming changes to Google Trends subscriptions.

As of 29 October 2024, Google Trends trend notifications will no longer be supported and existing alerts will no longer be sent. In addition, creating new trend alerts using the subscription page will no longer be possible.

You can still copy your subscriptions from the Google Trends subscription page before 29 October 2024, if you wish to keep a record of them.

We understand this change may affect how you stay updated on trends. While email subscriptions will no longer be supported, there are alternative ways to access trending information:

Homepage Newsletter: Visit the Google Trends homepage to sign up for our daily newsletter and receive the latest trends in your inbox.

RSS Feed: Subscribe to the RSS feed for real-time updates on trending topics. We hope these alternatives will help you continue to discover insights on Google Trends.

Thank you for being a Google Trends user.

Yours sincerely,

The Google Trends Team

Yes, got that notification too. I think we'll build an alternative. We are already working on many such notifications, see https://follow.it/api-feeds, and we should be able to easily add one for Google Trends as well. To get notified about it, you can follow this feed https://follow.it/new-api-feeds-on-follow-it?pub.
