Google introduces Smart Compose for Gmail

Google’s introducing an extension to its Smart Reply feature on Gmail. Called Smart Compose, it’ll suggest complete sentences in the body of your email as you type. Similar to autocomplete on phones, it works as you compose your message and you just need to hit tab for the text to auto-populate your message. The feature aims to help you save time and help prevent any spelling or grammatical mistakes. Smart Compose will also recognize context. So if you send out an email on Friday, it will prompt you to add “Have a great weekend!”

The feature is supposed to roll out to all Gmail consumer users later this month, while G Suite customers can access it in the coming months. You will need to have enabled the new Gmail (which you can access through the gear icon on the top right) to get access to Smart Compose. From there, you head into the general tab of settings and scroll down and enable “experimental access.”
