If you have a free email account, and let’s face it who hasn’t, there’s a high chance that you are using Gmail. It’s one of the best email providers on the planet and we all use it. I love Gmail because it’s free, it’s easy to use, and it’s continually updated with new features. Currently, I am in love with the new confidential mode along with the undo send feature. That said, I know many people are still not using these new features as they are not aware of them.

The updates mentioned here are for the Android platform. If you are using web or iOS version of the app, you might receive these updates sooner or later than the dates mentioned here.
