The Gmail Go works like the regular Gmail app, though there are some additional features. There’s a new Smart inbox feature, which basically segregates emails and shows the important emails first. The inbox prioritises emails from friends and family, automatically filtering social and promotional emails.

Gmail Go also comes with an anti-spam feature which blocks spam before it hits the inbox. This protects user account from malicious activities and keeps it safe, secure and clutter free. Interestingly, you can also read and respond to emails both online and offline and find messages quickly with the powerful search engine.

The new Gmail Go app is now available for download via the Google Play Store phone version. It joins the other Go version apps like the Assistant Go, Chrome Go, Gboard Go, YouTube Go, and Maps Go.
