Gmail v4.5 app released for Android. New Tabbed Inbox, Pull to refresh and more
0Recently Google announced the revamped version of Gmail for web, which includes the new tabbed inbox. And with that Google also announced that they will soon release the corresponding app update with the same features. Today Google released the updated app for Gmail.
Latest Gmail app for Android is actually very fast and it’s UI is absolutely awesome. It takes the full advantage of Tabbed Inbox interface, and with that user can filter the email in much more efficient way.
Along with the Tabbed Inbox feature, Google also updated the app with pull to refresh, and I was just waiting for this. Now instead on tapping on refresh button users can just pull to refresh like any other similar app.
There are tons of other changes related to performance and it really makes Gmail app very fast on Android and I strongly recommend this update to download.
All this great features is surely on the way for iPhone and I am eagerly waiting for this.
