New interface for Gmail mobile app

What’s new

In addition to the familiar announcements that Google has made about Drive and Docs, Sheets, Slides, Sites on the web, Google will now also bring new news related to the new interface of Gmail on phones.

As part of the new design, you can quickly view attachments – like images – without having to bother opening the email and scrolling down to see it. You can also quickly switch between your personal account and your work account (business email), so you can access all your emails without any effort.

In this update, you'll also see colors used in a more minimalist way to help you focus on content and important elements. Google has also replaced the search button with a more prominent search bar at the top of the screen.

And just like the web version of Gmail, you will see a large, clear, red warning to alert you whenever there are suspicious elements related to information fraud.

Who’s impacted
