Can i change google mail to old format

The nostalgia!

Yes, you can switch back to the classic Google Mail (Gmail) interface, also known as the "Old Gmail" or "Retro Gmail" design. Here's how:

Method 1: Using the Settings

  1. Log in to your Gmail account.
  2. Click on the gear icon () in the upper right corner.
  3. Select "See all settings" from the dropdown menu.
  4. Scroll down to the "General" tab.
  5. Look for the "Switch back to the old look" option and toggle the switch to the "On" position.
  6. Click "Save Changes" at the bottom of the page.

Method 2: Using a Browser Extension

  1. Install the "Classic Gmail" browser extension from the Chrome Web Store (or the Firefox Add-ons store, if you're using Firefox).
  2. Once installed, click on the extension's icon in your browser toolbar.
  3. Click on the "Enable Classic Gmail" button to switch back to the old interface.

Method 3: Using a URL Hack

  1. Log in to your Gmail account.
  2. Add the following URL parameter to the end of the URL: &classic=1
  3. Press Enter to reload the page.

The URL should look something like this: https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?classic=1

Keep in mind that the classic Gmail interface is no longer the default design, and some features might not be available or work as expected. Additionally, Google may eventually remove the option to switch back to the old interface, so it's a good idea to bookmark this page or save the URL hack for future reference.
