How to quickly switch accounts in Gmail for Android
Table of contents:
I am an iOS user. Specifically, I use the iPad as one of my main tools for work and entertainment. One of the applications that I use the most is Gmail, and although it is not the most complete mail app in the App Store, due to the simple fact that Google limits some functions, there are options that we have not seen on Android until now. One of them is the ability to quickly change accounts from the app, just by sliding your finger over the account iconNow this function comes to Android. So you can try it.
It might seem like an insignificant feature, but the truth is that it is very useful if we work a lot with Gmail and have different email accounts. Just by sliding our finger we can access the other account quickly, without having to click twice: once on the icon and another on the name of the account and without having to open the box with all the information. Also, if we have more than two accounts, we will only need to swipe twice to access the last user. This new feature is coming to Gmail for Android via an update. Check on Google Play that you have the latest version available and wait for this option, as it is activated by the servers and it could take a few days to reach all users.
Download the Gmail APK
You can also choose to download the latest APK available.Access this APK Mirror link and download the latest version of Gmail (date from August 29 onwards). Remember to check the box for unknown sources. If it is not activated, the system will notify you before installing the app. Click on activate so that Android allows you to install applications from the internet. Once downloaded, install it like any other app. As this is an official APK, you won't have any problems when a new update arrives from Google play Also, if you already have Gmail installed, the new app will replace the old one ancient. If after updating the app or downloading the version via the internet, the function is not available, please clear the app cache through the settings.
