Not to say that Google hasn’t made it easy, or given enough time for everyone who wants to get used to it. The “new” Gmail. Active or passive, the latest redesign of the Internet giant’s email service began to take effect at the beginning of 2022, with so little left.
Shortly afterwards, most Gmail users could start using the new interface themselves through the service’s preferences, and it was only at the end of June that the deployment of the new Gmail began to take place passively, i.e. automatic updates from Google. However, you can still go back manually using the same options.
Well, the change is about to end: two weeks The company estimates that the new look at Gmail will definitely replace the original one, according to official terms. Or what’s more, in conclusion, when November ends, the new Gmail interface based on the Material You style will be the default for everyone, basically because it will be the only one available.
The truth is, despite the complaints, the change is subtle and if anything, improves the interface, simplifies it, and brings together elements that could disrupt the experience a bit in a more orderly way. Of course, we always talk about Gmail on the web, even if the visual style is inherited from the latest versions of Android.
As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. Here’s how the new Gmail looks compared to the old one (or the old one, since this isn’t the first Gmail redesign; or the current one, if you’re still using it).
The “old” Gmail
The “new” Gmail
As you can see, almost everything is in place: accesses to some applications and sidebar on the right; in the middle, the list of messages, which, although it seems that it hardly changes in the image, changes and, for example, attached files will no longer be distinguished by a clip icon next to the date, but under the subject of the message, although this will depend on the selected density; and on the left… that’s where most of the changes are.
Cleanliness is most noticeable, as Gmail will by default contain only a compose button, a list of basic mail functions, and labels in a column; aa small panel on the far left which will display shortcuts to other Google Workspace applications, such as Google Chat or Meet, among others. Whether or not you see this panel will depend on whether you’re using one of these apps.
Be that as it may, like it more or less, in a few weeks the appearance and functionality of Gmail will be for all users of the service, which are not exactly few: in 2020, some 1800 million were counted.
In the following video, you can take a closer look at the changes that make up the new Gmail.
