If you use Gmail on a daily basis, both for your work and for your personal affairs, surely you are one of those who think that the more help and functions, the better. And so it is. Now Gmail has decided to streamline the composition of email messages, also through its applications for Android and iPhone.
We are talking about the Smart Compose or Intelligent Composition function, a feature that you surely already know and that for now, was only reserved for users of the web version of Gmail.But things are going to change shortly. Because the one from Mountain View has decided that the first mobile device that has this function is the Pixel 3. Its objective? Test how it works and extend this feature to other mobiles,equipped with both iOS and Android.
Smart Compose for Gmail on Mobile
But what is Smart Compose and why can it be useful to us? If you haven't tried this feature yet, because you don't usually use Gmail for desktop or because you didn't know it existed, we'll tell you that the smart reply system helps users to write faster replies to your emails. How? Well, through machine learning technology.
The machine studies the messages and the answers that the user usually offers to certain recipients, so that it is capable of providing some answers and suggesting answer texts as they type.It does it, moreover, in a quite successful way. Thus, the user has the option to accept or not the suggestion. If correct, it saves typing time and effort, so this is great news for those who are always on the run and need some kind of assistant who can help them when it comes to speeding up the management of your email.
Pixel 3 users will be the first to try the feature
But beware, this functionality is not yet available to all users. For now, the first to notice the integration of this useful feature will be Pixel 3 owners. Google has decided to release this Gmail feature on this home device.
In this way, and as they write (you have an example in the screenshot above) they will see how suggestions about the text they are writing appear in a gray tone.To accept them, all they have to do is click on it and the text will appear, black on white, in the body of the message.
What about the other devices?
If you've used Smart Compose or smart composition in your Gmail desktop email messages, you know it's a super useful option. So surely you want to use it on your mobile as soon as possible. Well, in that case you should know that for now this feature will only be seen on the Pixel 3 and that the rest of the users will still have to wait a bit.
In fact, as Google has announced through its official blog, intelligent or automatic responses are expected to reach other devices, with iOS and Android, starting in 2019.It will be at the beginning of the year when the applications for the respective operating systems will be updated,not before.
Also in Spanish
Watch out, there is another important feature that we should not overlook. And it is that with this update new languages also arrive. Thus, from now on the smart composition will not only be available in English, but will also work in four other languages: French, Italian, Portuguese and Spanish.
