Gmail Now Lets You Work Even When There Is No Internet Connectivity, Here’s How To Activate The Feature

Gmail, Google’s one of the most widely used emailing service, has been witnessing a slew of upgrades lately. Just before the Google I/O 2018 developer’s conference it received a major redesign and after the conference, a couple of new AI-based features were introduced for the mailing service.

But now, a new support has started rolling out for Gmail, which can also be termed as one of the most important and much-needed one – Offline support.

Yes, now you can work on your Gmail even when there is no internet connectivity. This means you can’t just read the emails but also archive them, delete them, write and search as well, all without the need of an internet connection. Al these tasks will be synced online and across devices once they get the network.

The only catch here is that this feature is not visible right away. You would need Chrome browser version 61. So here’s how you can get the offline mode activated on Gmail’s web version.

Step 1: Download Chrome 61.

Step 2: In Gmail, click on the gear-like Settings icon on the top-right side.

Step 3: In the drop down menu click on ‘Settings’ tab

Step 4: In the menu bar above, click on ‘Offline’ tab placed at the end (right side).

Step 5: Check the ‘Enable offline mail’ option.

Step 6: Change the settings according to your requirements.

And that’s it, you’re ready to work on Gmail without an internet connectivity.

Gmail has already made its ‘Smart Compose’ feature live for users. The aim of the feature is to make sentence writing process quicker. It is secretly hidden as an experimental feature. With this Google is taking feedback and improving it before rolling it out to everyone as one of the mainstream features.
