Gmail’s new unified design is now rolling out to everyone – Times of India

Google is now rolling out the new redesigned user interface based on Material Design 3 to everyone. The newly redesigned look comes along with the best features of Google Workspace. Now you will have Meet, Chat and Spaced together in the new fresh looking Gmail.
The new design combines Gmail, Chat, Meet and Spaces under the new unified design. If you are one of the Gmail users, who have been using chat for a while, you will start seeing the new design starting today. Users will get a clean and streamlined design with the ability to move between the apps within Gmail, and they can customize the layout as per their preference.
Gmail, Chat, Spaces and Meet come together
The new design offers a quick settings pane on the left, offering users to toggle between Mail, Chat, Spaces, and Meet. Also, the system labels and user-made labels will now be separated. Users will also now see conversation chat bubbles with excerpts of the message and a quick reply option.
Further, Google is making it easy to find emails on Gmail with search clips and improved search results.
Google first introduced Gmail’s new design to a selected number of users in January this year. And now, after six months of testing and user feedback, it is finally rolling out to everyone.
You may or may not like it, but the new design will be rolling out to everyone, regardless of whether you are a Chat user. You can roll back to the old design if you do not like the new Gmail. You need to go to the Settings, open Quick Settings and click ‘Go back to the original Gmail view.’
Google promises to improve the experience for Gmail users on tablets next. Also, we should see better emojis and additional accessibility options rolling out later this year.
