Since its launch in 2004, Gmail has been innovating constantly, offering new features that make it stand out from the competition. Via its laboratory and directly through its mobile apps, Google is continuing to experiment with new message analysis systems to achieve greater security and optimum ease of use.
Via its mobile Inbox app, which is a more advanced version of the Gmail inbox, Google has introduced a new automatic reply system called "Smart Reply". After analyzing messages, this system suggests three short standard replies such as "No thanks", "I'll think about it" or "I'll send it to you".
Users then simply have to select the answer they prefer. The time saved could be considerable,
especially in a working context. For the moment, this feature is only offered in English, for both Android and iOS. Nevertheless it could have great potential if it is one day rolled out to all devices that are compatible with Gmail.
It is expected that Gmail will soon be warning its users when they receive an email from non-secure connection. That will not necessarily prevent the message from being read, but it will warn the user that the email comes from a non-encrypted source and could therefore contain a virus.
Google says that at the moment 6 emails out of 10 received by Gmail users come from a sufficiently secure service, which is still too low. That is why it wants to warn users about messages that could be malevolent or contain a virus. Various levels of warning are therefore expected to be introduced in the coming months.
