Gmail getting a revamp with a new interface, features from Inbox

article published on 12 April, 2018

Google is planning to do a fairly meaningful user interface revamp to its beloved email service, Gmail, according to a leak by Android Authority. The renovation will include new features that have been used in Google's 2015 launched email service Inbox. Among these updates Google will introduce smart answers and mute to Gmail, but perhaps more importantly user interface will get a refresh. ... [ read the full article ]

I've been using Gmail ever since my old Hotmail account was hacked about 10+ years ago.

I can't stand Gmail User Interface as it looks like an old 1990 design. I wish they would improve the UI to look similar to Microsoft Outlook or even the new revamp Hotmail. Plus access settings and contacts should be in all one setting clickable location and not across the screen. It's just a really bad UI design.

I hate Hotmail and like my Gmail account, but Google Gmail really needs to update the UI to look more modern.

Personally I like the current Gmail; it's nice and light weight without being so stripped you feel it. But then I think that the microsoft offerings have terrible, ugly UI's (they look like something from Windows 10...and I consider that to be a bad thing).

As for offering settings and contacts (two unrelated things) in one section is the sort of thing I hate about modern UI's...they tend to make buttons bigger so there is less room for buttons so now you need to click two things to do what you could have done with one. Also...even if you have the screen space you still don't get all the buttons. You end up with a window that has lots of room for more but doesn't because they need the same thing to work on some old 800x600 tablet.
