Gmail Smart Compose personalization

What’s changing

Smart Compose suggestions are becoming more tailored to your writing style.

In addition, we’re adding the ability for admins to control whether Gmail Smart Compose is personalized for users within their domain. When personalization is enabled, end-users will also have the ability to individually opt out if they wish.

Why you’d use it

Since we announced Gmail Smart Compose in G Suite last year, we’ve seen how Smart Compose suggestions can cut down on the effort it takes for you to write emails and replies. With personalization, these suggestions now better resemble how you tend to write.

How to get started

No action is required to enable personalization. Both of the following settings are enabled by default.

  • Admins: To control Smart Compose personalization for your domain, in the Admin console, go to Apps > G Suite > Settings for Gmail > User Settings and select/unselect “Enable Gmail Smart Compose personalized suggestions.”
  • End users: If Smart Compose personalization is enabled for your domain, you can follow these instructions to turn Smart Compose personalization on or off.



Note that if your admin has disabled Smart Compose personalization for your domain, the end user controls are disabled.

Additional details

When you have Smart Compose personalization on, Smart Compose suggestions are tailored to the way you normally write. Only you will see your own private, personalized suggestions for your account. No other users can see your personalized suggestions. When personalization is turned off, you will see generic suggestions.
