Google Updates Gmail, Sheets and More with New Features

Google has announced that it is updating its Workspace apps with new features. According to Google, Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides have been updated, along with some improvements to Gmail. Users should find it easier to search in Gmail, while Google Meet will allow users to share files in chat and easily view data in a spreadsheet app. Google says that, as with previous updates to these apps, new updates should be visible to most users worldwide by now and that the arrival of these features should take no more than 15 business days.

Search improvements in the Gmail app are among the new updates. Following the declaration of better search options and suggestions in Gmail, Google announced in July that its free email service will now provide users with better search results. According to the blog post, these results are based on recent search activity in the Gmail app itself. In a nutshell, the update will make search results more relevant and contextual based on previous searches in the app.

Google Sheets is also being updated to improve pivot table functionality. The Sheets app now allows pivot tables to be resized when they are created or modified, which Google claims is a frequently requested feature. When column names or headings are long, and users need to see and read all of the text, this feature is used, and it can be accessed or modified using the pivot table editor.

Google will now allow users to share similar files from the same Meet chat after declaring the ability to join or present to a Google Meet call from Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.
