This morning, Google released a redesigned Gmail app for iPhone with performance that’s gotten “a lot faster.” The “fresh new look” includes sleeker transitions that result in Gmail suddenly feeling way more like a proper app and less like a clumsy overlay for Gmail’s mobile website. For one, you can now quickly swipe to archive or delete messages (depending on your preference) like on Android.
Google has also brought over one big feature from Inbox: Undo Send. This new option slides up from the bottom after you’ve fired off an email, giving you a brief opportunity to take it back before your typos are seen and ridiculed by coworkers. Search has gotten quicker with what Google calls “instant” results and spelling suggestions.
Unfortunately, this new Gmail refresh still doesn’t include a unified inbox, so you’ve still got to switch between personal and work accounts and view them individually. Oh, and Gmail still doesn’t support the iPad after all these years, either. Those things alone mean I’ll probably be sticking with other email apps for the time being. But if you’ve been sticking with the Gmail app for all this time, well, it’s getting noticeably better today.
