Earlier this month, Google announced a complete redesign of the web version of Gmail : Initially, this change was only for Workspaces users, but it appears that BigG has already started the rollout for personal accounts.
It could therefore take a few weeks before your profile shows the new design, but Google has nevertheless explained how to “force” the new UI. In this regard, we remind you that it is necessary to have activated the Gmail Chat function before proceeding : to do this, just go to Settings (from the button at the top right) > View all settings> Chat and Meet and activate the Google Chat item.
So, to try the new Gmail design just go to “ Settings” (from the button in top right) and under “Quick settings” click “ Try the new Gmail view “ . Same procedure for returning to the previous Gmail view.
Another important change concerns the notification bubbles : to activate them, just go to the top right of the Gmail window, next to the status indicator , click on “ Other options” and then on ” Chat notification settings “ . At this point, check the boxes next to “Allow chat notifications” and “Open bubbles chat for new messages “ and then click Finish.
Below, you will also find a video from Google that explains in detail all the news of the Gmail redesign.
