We have been able to access all our email Ids from other providers on the Gmail app for some time now. No matter which popular email provider we use like Outlook.com or Yahoo! Mail , Gmail app on Android now supports it. Though there are still a few things that can be better or improved, and Google has been constantly receiving and reviewing feedback from its users about the same.
Some of the common features people requests are the ones that are already present in Gmail. In fact, the main demand is to make other providers email accounts just as powerful as Gmail. Some of these powerful features are listed below:
Spam Protection:
Spam are the biggest hassles for the senders and the receivers, sometimes we end up with months of promotional emails, just because we visited a travel site, and other times our important e-bills are directed to the spam folder because the senders name is not included in the address list and they added some promotional content along with the bill, something we might even want. That is the main reason people demand for the same powerful Gmail Postmaster Toots for emails from other providers.
Inbox Organization:
We know how great it is to be able to organize our inbox, especially Gmail on Android. It gives you all the possible power over your messages, social notifications, Promotional offer, etc. Unfortunately, all these powerful features are not present for the other providers email, hence the demand to get them for others as well.
The thing to note here is that we love the features Gmail have and want the same for our Yahoo! Mail or Hotmail/ Outlook.com accounts as well. However, most of us are not willing to give up the email accounts or set up new email accounts for these features. So, make to this easy, Gmail has come up with a solution, it is called Gmailify your inbox.
It is a simple process or update, which allows you to connect or link your existing account to Gmail to give you all the great features without having to change your email account. In simpler words, you will be able to use inbox organization options, spam protection and even Google Now cards on the existing email account.
The get this feature you have to follow a few simple steps:
- Open Gmail app on your Android smart phone
- Sign in all your email accounts, one or more, it will not matter
- Then all you have to do is enable Gmailify option and all your account will be linked
However, if you don’t like the new updates or don’t want to use them for any reason, you can always go back to the original settings, by simply unlinking your accounts, and continue to use your other email accounts through Gmail without the Gmailify option. Though, it is not likely that you would want to do that, as the new features are quite exciting.
Gmail is continuously working on getting more email providers under Gmailify to make your experience even better.
