Google is known for continuous updates to its products and add new features in them. Google always try to improve product performance and make it faster and easier. Today, Google has done something similar with it Gmail by launching new compose email view. Gmail has redesigned the compose and reply experience to make it faster.
“We’re always trying to make Gmail faster and easier to use, so today we’re introducing a completely redesigned compose and reply experience that does just that,” Phil Sharp, Product Manager Gmail, wrote.
The new compose pops up in a window, just like chats. So it is now easy to see older emails while writing a new email. Now you do not need to save new email to draft just to see something from older mails. See the snap shot of new compose mail pop up.
As we can see that it works in similar way as chat windows, we can now compose multiple emails at once and minimize a message to finish it later.
“This makes it easy to reference any other emails without ever having to close your draft. You can even do a search or keep an eye on new mail as it comes in. And because the compose window works the same way as chats, you can write multiple messages at once and minimize a message to finish it later,” Philip says
While adding the email address of recipients, it now shows the suggestion with inline images to identify the person faster.
Similar kind of changes have been done for reply windows which will also open in the pop up window and will work in similar way.
“The reply experience has been designed to fit better inline as part of your conversation — replies take up much less vertical height, intelligently expand to fit your content, and always keep the recipients and other controls in view no matter how long your message gets,” He added.
