Gmail will alert and sometimes correct your grammatical errors

The days of sending grammatically questionable emails might be over. Or at least, you're getting extra help from Gmail. Similar to what Google has done with Docs, Gmail will let you know if you've made grammatical errors and underline these in blue. You can right-click those words to see the suggestions on how to fix them. And if you make "common spelling mistakes," then Gmail will automatically correct those for you. This new feature is coming first to G Suite accounts by mid-September. We don't know when it's coming to regular Gmail users, but you can expect this to make its way soon.

Gmail on Android now has Google Task integrated

Google redesigned its Task app after getting rid of its standalone service and now, the company has ported this feature into Gmail on Android. So, if you’re using the improved app, you can now add emails into it. You just need to tap on the overflow menu (the three-dot menu) and click “Add to Tasks.” You’ll get a notification if an email has been added successfully, and whether you want to jump directly into the Tasks app to view this new addition.

Material Design refresh for Gmail on Android gets wider release

We reported last month that the Material Design refresh, which first appeared for Gmail on the desktop, is making its way to the mobile apps. It offers a cleaner interface for the email client and ties it in with the overall design theme Google is applying to all of its products. Now, for Android users, it seems the rollout is more widespread. As 9to5Google reports, version 9.1.13 should be rolling out to more users. If you don't have auto update on, you should head to Gmail's Play Store page to see if the update is available for you.

Google makes right-clicking on Gmail a lot more useful

Before when you tried to access the right-click menu of Gmail, it offered three paltry options: archive, mark as unread, or delete. But that option is about to get a bit more useful. Google is overhauling the menu and adding a lot more options like being able to select reply, forward, label, move, mute, and snooze emails. It’s coming first to G Suite users with Rapid Release domains. And then on February 22nd, it’ll be hitting Scheduled Release customers. Google hasn’t announced if or when Gmail free accounts will be getting the feature. But we’re pretty confident it will land in the future. We’ll keep you posted for any updates.
