Gmail email from google inbox
You're referring to the transition from Google Inbox to Gmail!
In July 2019, Google announced that it would be discontinuing Google Inbox, a popular email client that was introduced in 2014. The company decided to focus on improving the Gmail experience, and as a result, Inbox's features would be integrated into Gmail.
Here's what happened:
- Google Inbox was discontinued: On April 2, 2019, Google stopped accepting new sign-ups for Inbox, and existing users were given a 15-month transition period to switch to Gmail.
- Inbox features were integrated into Gmail: During the transition period, Google added many of Inbox's features to Gmail, including:
- Bundles: Grouping similar emails together (e.g., social media updates, newsletters, etc.).
- Snooze: Temporarily removing an email from your inbox and bringing it back at a later time.
- Nudges: Sending reminders about emails that need your attention.
- Quick Actions: Allowing you to perform common actions (e.g., marking as read, deleting, etc.) directly from the inbox.
- Gmail became the default email client: After the transition period, Inbox was officially shut down, and Gmail became the default email client for all Google accounts.
If you were using Google Inbox, you likely received an email from Google with instructions on how to transition to Gmail. If you're still using Inbox, you can expect to see a notification prompting you to switch to Gmail soon.
