Here is everything you need to know about the new Gmail

Here is everything you need to know about the new GmailHere is everything you need to know about the new GmailStop what you are doing. Put everything down. There is a new version of Gmail out and you need to know everything about it. When I first opened it I did have an initial response of Ewww but I quickly got used to it and you will too.None of the new features are quite earth-shattering, but they definitely may make you a bit more organized.First of all, how does one get the new Gmail?From the main Gmail screen,click on the gear iconand then in the drop-down menu select Try the new Gmail and voilaOn the new welcome splash screen, you can choose your display density. If your inbox is usually full we suggest the compact view. Here are eight of the new Gmail features you need to know about1. OrganizationYou can keep yourself super organized with the Calendar, Keep, and Tasks which are all located on right-hand side of the Gmail screen in a sidebar. This allows you to look at your ca lendar while also having your email open.2. Snooze, dont loseYou know those emails you need to read but you just dont want to do it right now? Cue Snooze. Simply hover over the message and by clicking the clock icon, the email will temporarily disappear from your inbox. You then choose when you want it to come back to the top of your inbox so you cant miss it. This could be great for paying bills.3. RemindersNudged is another tool to help make sure you read important emails, this feature reminds you to respond to emails by using bright-colored text if youd like to send a reply.4. Easier downloadsYou can download attachments without opening email. Who needs to pesky words about what is attached in your email when you can just open the attachment?If a message contains an attachment, it will show up under the subject line on the main page then with just one click you can open the image, PDF, PowerPoint, Google Doc, etc.5. Offline accessWith Gmails new Offline Mode you can still have ac cess to your emails even when you are away from your WiFi or if your phone is on airplane mode.6. Better privacyYou can keep important emails private with Gmails Confidential Mode, which lets youtischset an expiration date or revoke the message after sending. As Wired pointed out, it basically allows you to make your email go into Mission Impossible mode as it will literally self-destruct.7. More securityYou can also put an authentication code on sensitive emails and can remove the ability to forward, copy or download a message, and unsend a message.8. Recommended repliesGmail will now use Quick Replies (short suggested messages you used to just send through the app.) It sounds a little creepy but Google will analyze your email style to match your tone.So what are you waiting for?
