In this way, we found a most interesting novelty.This is the interaction between the assistant Google Now and the client of Gmail email Thus, we can ask about any question that we have sent or received through this messaging service and find the screentip, without having to search for mail by mail. The negative point is that this function is only available in English, being mandatory to use this language if we want to succeed in our search.

In any case, it is now possible to update the application, completely free, through from Google Play. The version for iPhone and from iPad have also been updated, but only with functional improvements Available for free at App Store
