- The in-progress smart features and personalization options we spotted in Workspace earlier this month are now further along.
- Gmail is working on a settings screen to let Workspace users configure privacy options.
- Progress is still pretty rough, and this feature likely has a long way to go before it’s ready.
When we’re peeking under the hood of app updates, looking for hints of what the developers might be bringing us next, we have to be ready to hit a few roadblocks along the way — sometimes it looks like work is heading in a certain direction, but as soon as we start pulling on that thread, the app shuts us down. That’s just what happened a few weeks back when looking into Gmail development, but today we’ve finally got some progress to share.
Back then, we uncovered progress towards giving the app some new smart features and personalization options for Workspace users — except that when trying to access them, the app just crashed on us. Well, sometimes patience is rewarded, and when trying it out again with Gmail’s new 2024.08.25.668103139.Release build it’s now (sort of ) working.
