One of the most popular apps that Google has is the Gmail app on the Android platform. The cool thing about Gmail is that not only can you access and use Gmail from the web app; you can also add other accounts to the email service and manage them all for the web interface.

Google is now talking a bit about Gmail 5.0, the latest version of the email app. The new version of the app is designed to handle all email with the Gmail app, just as you can from the desktop application. With the update, Gmail can handle email from accounts on Yahoo or Outlook among others.

Switching between multiple accounts will be done using a simply drop down menu or using a swipe. The app is also getting new round icons and an updated overall look.

Among the updates to the look of the app are refreshed icons and more. Google has been updating all of its apps to go with the new material design philosophy and it’s finally Gmail’s turn. It’s unclear when Gmail 5.0 will launch.

  1. This would be great if gmail can do split screen in landscape. So I’m probably gonna stick with the stock email app on my note 4 which also supports multiple account.
