Google just released its Gmail Q&A feature to mobile devices. through Gmail, we could use Gemini to ask about certain details about your inbox, and it will provide what you ask for. With the Android release now out, Google claimed they will release the feature to iOS soon.
And now with its release to Android, we can easily navigate through our email inboxes even on our phones, according to Google “You can ask Gemini questions about your inbox or to do things like find specific details in your emails, show you unread messages, view messages from a specific sender, or summarize emails about a topic in your inbox,”. It all seems great, However, there’s a catch, as not all users will get access to those features, cause to use them, you need to either be subscribed to Google One AI Premium or be on a Google Workspace plan with the Gemini Business, Gemini Enterprise, Gemini Education, or Gemini Education Premium Add-ons to which reduces the number of people that can use this feature, and is honestly a huge disappointment to everyone who was looking up to the feature.
How Does Gmail Q&A Work on Android?
Google Q&A on Android is relatively the same as the web extension, with the only difference being the Gemini Panel, as a mobile screen doesn’t have enough space to fit one, however, to make up for that, on the Android version, you get a pop-up window of Gemini to use, though this does come at the cost of the user not being able to see all their emails while it’s on.
Once the window pops up you can ask Gemini any questions regarding your inbox such as specific details of the sender, or the content, and Gemini will show you related emails sent, and you can also use some of the suggestions on the window such as “Show unread emails from today” and “Get the status of my recent orders” to quickly access the emails.
You can also ask Gemini to get you information from the emails themselves, and the chatbot will get them for you in the form of neat notes that are easy to read, without you having to get the email yourself and get the details from it.
The feature is certainly an interesting, and very useful one, however, it doesn’t come cheap due to the subscriptions you need to use, as discussed before, which seems to be the only downside to a rather great feature.
