Gmail update brings a unified inbox for all your email accounts
After Gmail recently added the ability to add accounts from Yahoo, Outlook, and the like, Google is adding another helpful feature those living the multiple account lifestyle will no doubt appreciate.
Today the Gmail team announced a new update — which should already be live in your Google Play Store app — that brings a single unified inbox for all your email accounts. The unified inbox appears under the “All inboxes” option in the slide-out menu, but unfortunately it can’t be selected as the default view. At least not yet anyway. What’s more is Gmail’s conversation view now plays nice with your Yahoo, IMAP/POP email accounts, condensing those long email conversations an into a single, easy to organize thread.
Gmail has also improved autocomplete when searching for older messages, making it faster than ever before, while adding new arrow animations when opening/closing a conversation, larger attachment previews, and the ability to save to your Google Drive with a single tap.
