Gmail gets new easy account switching gesture on Android

Image
Before rolling out new gestures with the Android 10 update, Google has been subtly updating its apps with gestural navigation. Now, the tech giant has updated Gmail for Android with an easy account switching gesture that is making users with multiple Google accounts very happy. It also updated the Google Drive app earlier this week, and added a similar feature. The same gesture feature was also rolled out to Google Maps, recently. Instead of opening the menu and selecting another account, users with multiple accounts can now simply slide up or slide down on the account profile icon in the top corner to switch between accounts. This new feature helps make the always present user avatar that identifies what account you’re using even more useful.  The switch-to-switch gesture first appeared in Google Maps. It then made its way to Google Drive, and the Google Contacts app. While Drive has a sliding cards animation on switching accounts, Gmail does not have that kind of animation. It is

Redmi recently launched its Redmi Note 8 series of smartphones in China that consists of the Redmi Note 8 and á¹­he Redmi Noá¹­e 8 Pro.

Jain says that the company requires the said amount of time to get its new device certified and tested in India for an official launch.  While we expected Xiaomi to soon launch the Redmi Note 8 series in India, it seems like Realme could best the company when it comes to launching new devices. The Realme 5 series of smartphones were recently launched in India and the company’s CEO, Madhav Sheth, said that Realme XT with a 64MP camera will launch by September end in India.
