Finding critical information on the go often involves sifting through lengthy email threads and switching between multiple messages while your hands are busy commuting or multi-tasking. Following our initial rollout of conversational AI voice capabilities, we are bringing Gmail Live to Google Workspace customers on mobile (Android and iOS). Using our latest Gemini models, Gmail Live delivers a low-latency, inbox-aware voice search experience that lets you ask questions naturally and hear synthesized answers directly from your email inbox. We’ve included sources for users to easily view the emails where the information is being pulled, as well as the following improvements:

  • See where the information is coming from: An email source card is now surfaced prominently at every conversational turn.
  • Ability to pick the voice of your choice: You can now pick your preferred voice directly from Gmail Live.

Common use cases include:

  • “What is the order status for Black Forest Construction Supply?”
  • “When is my next mandatory training due?”
  • “Show me the latest update from my manager, John.”
  • “What gate is my flight leaving from tomorrow?”

[Update: September 2026]: We have updated the banner language to be more general: "You’re not on the recipients list, replying to all lets everyone know you were included."

This warning displays whenever a user attempts to "Reply All" to a thread where their address is not listed in the To or CC fields (such as BCC'ed, auto-forwarded, or delegated emails), preventing accidental disclosure across all these scenarios.

To help protect your privacy and ensure intentional communication, we are introducing a new caution notification in Gmail. This feature is designed to prevent accidental information disclosure by alerting users when they are about to "Reply All" to a thread where they are not listed as a recipient in the To or CC fields (such as when BCC’ed or receiving forwarded mail).

Previously, users might inadvertently reveal their presence or personal address on a thread by hitting "Reply All" when they were not an explicitly listed recipient. With this update, Gmail displays a prominent banner—'You’re not on the recipients list, replying to all lets everyone know you were included'—to confirm your intent before sending to all recipients, ensuring that your participation remains private unless you choose otherwise.


Getting started

  • Admins: This feature is available by default.
  • End users: This feature is available by default and will trigger automatically when a recipient not listed on the To or CC line attempts to "Reply All" on a thread.

Availability

  • Available to all Google Workspace customers, Workspace Individual subscribers, and users with personal Google accounts.

Users can now edit and revise their email drafts in Gmail via the prompt bar, using custom refine instructions in Help me write. Previously the refines were limited to preset options like Polish, Formalize, and Shorten. Now if your first draft isn’t quite perfect, you can provide a precise follow-up prompt in your own words to further refine it, and even undo or redo any edits you make.

Whether you need to add a missing detail to the second line or include a deadline for your request, simply type the instruction and Gmail will instantly update the draft for you.

[Update Aug 21, 2026] We have resumed this rollout. The feature should be available to all domains on the Rapid Release track in the coming days, followed shortly by the Scheduled Release track.

Previously, users could only work with delegated Gmail accounts through the web interface. We are updating the Gmail app for iOS and Android to allow delegates to read, manage, and compose emails on behalf of a delegator directly from their mobile devices.

This update removes a significant barrier for employees who rely on mobile devices for their daily productivity. For example, an administrative assistant can seamlessly handle urgent communications for an executive while away from the office, without needing to find a desktop computer.

When using the Gmail mobile app, delegates can now:

  • Switch between their own inbox and delegated accounts.
  • View unread message counts for delegated inboxes from the account menu.
  • See emails intermingled across delegated accounts and their own account using the mobile “All inboxes” view.
  • Send messages that allow recipients to view the specific "sent by" information in the mobile experience. 
Administrators retain full control over delegation settings, including the ability to restrict delegation to specific organizational units. The mobile experience adheres to existing delegation policies and limits, such as supporting up to 1,000 unique delegates per account and 40 concurrent users. Delegators do not need to perform any additional setup to enable mobile access for their existing delegates.

Getting started

  • Admins: There is no admin control for this specific mobile feature; it follows existing delegation settings that you’ve configured for the web experience.
  • End users: To access a delegated account, ensure you have first been granted access via the Gmail web settings. Once granted, tap your profile picture in the Gmail app on Android or iOS and select the delegated account from the list. Visit the Help Center to learn more about delegating and collaborating on email.

Availability

  • Available in early July to all Google Workspace customers, Workspace Individual subscribers, and users with personal Google accounts

As previously announced, Help me write in Gmail is evolving into an even more helpful partner that can pull in your natural voice and personalized context to get you closer to the perfect draft every time. We’ve added two new personalization enhancements:

  • Topic contextualization: The feature can now connect to Google Drive and Gmail based on your prompt. It will then use the context from these apps to automatically insert relevant information into the email draft, reducing the time you spend toggling between apps to find specific details.
  • Tone and style personalization: Help me write can also now create personalized email drafts that match the tone and style of your previously written emails.

Before and after of a generated email

With these new changes, users will save valuable time currently spent on cross-Workspace app context switching to reference correct sources, typing, copy-pasting, and formatting. Just type a short prompt, and delegate the draft writing for common use cases, including:

  • Responding to inquiries from customers and partners
  • Distributing information, documents, or materials to collaborators
  • Reporting progress, milestones, and project-related issue to leadership
  • Seeking assistance or answers from team
  • Providing or asking for feedback from peers
  • Sharing team announcements or progress reports to the organization
  • Introducing new projects
  • Exploring potential partnerships
  • Teacher-parent- communications
  • Grant proposals

Your inbox is full of critical information that you need to get your work done, but uncovering it shouldn't mean running endless searches just to sift through fragmented email threads. With AI Overviews in Gmail search, you can now ask natural language questions in Gmail’s search bar and get concise summaries and answers without digging through emails.


In the Gmail search bar, type in questions such as:

  • “What are the performance improvements Owen mentioned?”
  • “What are the milestones we agreed to for “Project Astro”?
  • “Which invoices have I already paid and which are still outstanding to Sandbox Supplies?”
  • “What were the latest comments from the UX deck?”
  • “What are the details of my upcoming trip to New York?”
You’ll get instant summaries that pull context from across multiple conversations. No more searching your inbox for scattered details—just the answers you need, right when you need them.

Note that we previously launched this feature to users with Google AI Pro and Ultra subscriptions; we’re now bringing it to business and education users with eligible licenses (see availability below).

We’re expanding Gmail end-to-end encryption (E2EE) to Android and iOS devices for Gmail client-side encryption (CSE) users. With Gmail E2EE, your users can confidentially engage with your organization's most sensitive data from anywhere on their mobile devices while ensuring data remains compliant and with your organizations sovereignty and compliance requirements.

For the first time, users can compose and read these E2EE messages natively within the Gmail app on Android and iOS. No need to download extra apps or use mail portals. Users with a Gmail E2EE license can send an encrypted message to any recipient, regardless of what email address the recipient has.

  • Gmail recipients: If the recipient uses the Gmail app, the encrypted message will be delivered as a typical email thread to their inbox.
  • Guest recipients: If the recipient doesn’t have the Gmail app, they can seamlessly and securely read and reply in their own native browser, ensuring that all users have a simple and secure interface, regardless of their email service or device.
This launch combines the highest level of privacy and data encryption with a user-friendly experience for all users, enabling simple encrypted email for all customers from small businesses to enterprises and public sector.

Finding time to meet often requires numerous back-and-forth emails, particularly when coordinating between multiple internal and external stakeholders. To address this, we are expanding the "Help me schedule" functionality in Gmail (introduced in October 2025) to support group meetings.

Previously, "Help me schedule" was limited to scheduling between two individuals. With this update, users can now coordinate meetings with multiple guests directly from the Gmail compose window.

Gemini in Gmail detects when you are trying to coordinate a time within an email and will surface a Help me schedule button in the toolbar. If there is more than one recipient on the thread, Gemini will propose ideal time slots that work for you and any colleagues, if you have visibility to their calendar. While the initial guest list is pulled automatically from the email thread, users have full control to edit guests as needed.

When a recipient receives the email, they can cross-reference the proposed availability against their own colleagues' schedules. Once a recipient selects a time, a Calendar invite is automatically sent to all guests.


Core capabilities:

  • Analyze schedules and suggest meeting times: Gemini proposes ideal time slots that work for you and your colleagues (that you have calendar visibility for), based on their availability, working hours, and other factors
  • Manage guest list: The initial guest list for the meeting gets pulled automatically from the email thread, and users have full control to edit the guests
  • Automate invites: Once a recipient selects a time, a Calendar invite is automatically sent to all guests, including external participants.

We are introducing a significant enhancement to Gmail’s storage and delivery capabilities for Enterprise Plus customers. To support seamless collaboration and high-fidelity file sharing, we are increasing the file size limits for both sending and receiving emails.

  • Sending larger files: Users can now attach files up to 50MB directly to an email (doubling the previous 25MB limit). This allows users to send large presentations, comprehensive spreadsheets, and high-resolution PDFs as direct attachments without needing to upload them to Google Drive first.
  • Receiving larger files: We are increasing the total incoming message size limit to 70MB to also support large messages and attachments. This ensures that your organization can successfully receive larger emails from external senders, improving interoperability with other email platforms.
We know that today's workflows often involve sharing data-rich files. This new update compliments our existing functionality that allows users to upload to Google Drive and share a link. While Drive is excellent for collaboration, sometimes a direct attachment is the preferred method for external partners, clients, or regulatory workflows.

This update directly addresses two key areas of friction by:

  • Streamlining workflow: Users can now simply drag and drop files up to 50MB into their draft window. This reduces context switching and saves time when sharing final versions of documents.
  • Improving interoperability: Users who collaborate with partners who are unable to use Drive can now leverage attachments for these larger files, ensuring these critical communications are available regardless of the recipient.
This feature is admin configurable, giving admins more control over your organization's bandwidth and storage policies.

What’s changing

In 2025, we introduced the ability to react to emails in Gmail with emojis. This feature lets users respond quickly to acknowledge receipt of an email in a fun, informal and more authentic way. While initially enabled as an opt-in feature for early customer access, starting February 9, 2026, emoji reactions in Gmail will be enabled by default.

Organizations wishing to disable this feature can do so at any time in the Admin console, and the feature will not be enabled by default for organizations who have previously disabled or modified this feature setting in the Admin console (check the Audit & Investigation tool to confirm). 

Whether you’re using a ‘thanks’ emoji to express gratitude, voting for a team dinner with a food emoji, or congratulating your client for reaching a milestone with a celebratory emoji, emoji reactions provide an expressive and more personal way to respond to emails.

Note that reactions cannot be sent in certain scenarios, for example if an email was received via a Google Group email alias or if there is a Google Group on the recipient list. Visit the Help Center to learn more about these scenarios.

What’s changing

Earlier this year, data classification labels for Gmail became generally available. Admins can use this feature to classify and audit email content according to organizational guidelines (“Sensitive,” “Confidential,” etc.) and apply policies, such as data loss prevention (DLP) rules, to protect sensitive information in email messages.

We have expanded this functionality to include the ability to create a DLP rule that adds a header or footer message to email messages. Critically, header and footer messages will be shown to users outside of your domain, which helps ensure external users are aware of the sensitivity of the message and any handling requirements. DLP rules are applied to outbound messages from your domain based on how you have configured the rule scope and conditions. As a reminder, the actual classification label is only visible to recipients in your domain.

Admins can customize the information shown in the header or footer message, including links to further information on handling information. Headers and footers are visible on all device types, both within and outside of your domain.

Update (March 30, 2026): This feature is rolling out now to Workspace for Education customers. We expect it to be available to all Education plans listed below within a week.

What’s changing

We’re launching a new integration between Gmail and Google Chat designed to improve team collaboration and productivity. With this feature, you can easily share a conversation from your Gmail inbox to a Chat direct message or space. No need to start your chat conversation with, "Did you see the email I forwarded?" or dig through your inbox to find the message being discussed.

Starting from a Gmail thread, you can initiate a chat with the existing email recipients, a subset, or a new group. The email is automatically forwarded and recipients can open it directly from a link in Chat.

This enables you to switch to Chat for active discussion while preserving the connection to the original message. Two-way linking helps ensure that everyone has the full context they need for a productive discussion and reduces the need to jump between tabs.

This feature is helpful in common scenarios such as:

  • Resolving an issue in real time instead of going back and forth over email
  • Chatting about an email with a subset of the original group before responding
  • Discussing a customer email with coworkers
  • Signal boosting an announcement by company leadership 
  • Sharing meetings notes and action items

What’s happening

Gmail is enhancing user security by enabling the Cross-Origin Opener Policy (COOP). As a result, developers of websites and browser extensions opening or manipulating the Gmail page may have to update their code to ensure continued functionality when enforcement begins on January 20, 2026. There is no action needed from Workspace admins or end users.

COOP background

Cross-Site Search (XS-Search) is a type of Cross-Site Leaks (XS-Leaks) attack that targets query-based search systems, like Gmail. Attackers exploit this vulnerability by gaining control of a Gmail window, either by opening a new popup or accessing an existing one via its window handle. Once they have this access, they can gather information via a side channel to determine if specific search results exist by repeatedly loading different search terms, thereby leaking sensitive user data.

COOP is a web security feature designed to isolate the web applications from untrusted origins. This measure will prevent attackers from accessing Gmail's window handle, thereby protecting users from various Cross-Site Search (XS-Search) attacks that rely on window handles for collecting side-channel information, such as frame counting. This also significantly hinders attacks like cache probing, which rely on timing and other observations for resources that Gmail loads for search results. While these attacks don't directly collect side-channel information through the window handles themselves, COOP prevents repeated searches and thereby increases difficulty and reduces effectiveness, making them far less of a threat.

Who’s impacted

Websites or browser extensions that open Gmail in a pop-up window and interact with that window by accessing its properties (closed, location, length, focus) or invoking its functions (close, postMessage). Also, browser extensions that are injected into Gmail page and access the opener handle which is a reference to the window that opened the current Gmail page.

Additional details

To enforce COOP, the Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy header will be present in the response:

Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy: same-origin-allow-popups; report-to="gmail-web-coop-coep"
Report-To:{"group":"gmail-web-coop-coep","endpoints":[{"url":"https://csp.withgoogle.com/csp/report-to/gmail-web"}]}

Getting started

  • Developers:
    • For websites and browser extensions opening Gmail, refactor the offending code to avoid accessing the window properties or functions through the window handle and instead, utilize alternative APIs to achieve the desired functionality (e.g., chrome.tabs, Messaging).
    • For browser extensions injected into the Gmail page, instead of trying to communicate with or access the opener, the browser extension should be updated so it doesn't need to interact with it at all and the extension's logic should be revised to work independently. If that is not possible, browser extensions can use existing APIs (e.g., chrome.tabs) to implement their logic.
  • Admins: There is no admin control for this feature.
  • End users: There is no end user setting for this feature. 

Rollout pace

  • Enforcement will begin on January 20, 2026. Rollout will be extended (potentially longer than 15 days for feature visibility).

What’s changing 

Finding time to meet — especially with external clients and customers — is hard, often requiring many back-and-forth emails. The new Gemini-powered Help me schedule feature in Gmail makes it easier for you to coordinate time with others. 

Gmail with Gemini will detect when you’re trying to coordinate a time within an email and will surface a Help me schedule button in the toolbar. After you click on the Help me schedule button, Gemini will automatically suggest ideal slots based on your Google Calendar and the email's context. For example, if someone asks for a 30 minute meeting next week, Gemini will recommend time slots that fit your availability. 

You can customize the times that Gemini suggests by removing or adding additional options, and then insert them directly into your Gmail message. Once the recipient receives the email and selects a time that works for them, a Calendar invite will automatically be added to both individual’s calendars. At launch, this feature will only support scheduling between two individuals, not groups.

Generally available today, Gmail client-side encryption (CSE) users can send end-to-end encrypted (E2EE) emails to anyone, even if the recipient uses a different email provider. Recipients will receive a notification and can easily access the encrypted message via a guest account, ensuring secure communication without the hassle of exchanging keys or using custom software. 

This capability, requiring minimal efforts for both IT teams and end users, abstracts away the traditional IT complexity and substandard user experiences of existing solutions, while preserving enhanced data sovereignty, privacy, and security controls.
