Introduction
Gmail is a big part of our work life, and it wouldn't be possible to keep the office environment strictly professional without Gmail. In the past, we only had Gmail and Emails to send files regarding official work. At present things are quite different than they were used to in the past. Numerous apps can easily replace Gmail but all of us choose Gmail over any other app available in the app store. Cause it doesn't ask us to share our private number as other apps do? Therefore you don't have to share numbers with an unwanted person.
But didn't we always wish for something better to address an important issue which we can't discuss over Gmail and we have to make phone calls or video calls? Which again requires you to share your number with everyone. What if we tell you that this won't be the case anymore, that from now on you will be able to make video and voice calls through Gmail. Yes, you heard it right, in the future for business purposes Gmail will fulfill all of your requirements, and you don't need to visit other apps to make calls. Let's discuss what exactly this will entails
Everyone must be aware that Google Meet is the way to go if you want to make and receive calls on Gmail. All of this was done purposely to redesign and recreate Gmail. The process has begun. Currently, the corporation consumers are the only ones who are benefiting from this feature but shortly as a usual Gmail user, you will also have the access to this new feature and take benefits from it.
Google finally decided that they will redesign and update Gmail and add some new features: voice calls and video calls which are going to be possible with the connection that they have through the application. This feature will be a small part of the bigger picture that Google has in their mind which is that their users have a better workspace.
There will be various updates in Gmail but the major updates that they are providing their customers and their main reason behind the redesigning is voice calls and video calls.
After the update, not only users will be able to send emails to their colleagues, they can easily make direct phone calls and video calls from your Gmail app. But you can only make them with the assistance of Google Meet within the Gmail application. Google made Gmail a prominent crossroad for a single work-related app built by Google. Gmail's purpose is not limited to mails anymore. From now on you can hold video conferences, do group and personal chats, and last but not least make video and phone calls.
Google Meet's job is to give Gmail users an alternative to initiating and joining a virtual conference. In the future, they will upgrade it and then you will be able to make private video calls and voice calls to the contact list on your phone through Gmail. Google is working on redesigning Gmail so that they can add features like Spaces and Google Calendar. They also added the latest feature of companion mode for the Google Meet which is going to help you utilize audiovisual hardware for the virtual conference calls and Google also decided to improve the Google Meet Hardware ecosystem.
Final Verdict
Google is finally taking the turn in the right direction by adding voice call and video call features into the Gmail app. Smartphones truly brought a massive change in our tech industry. All of this became possible after the introduction of various apps for smartphones and how companies sell mobiles at a higher rate which brought competition to the app industry and it led Google to make such a decision to bring a new method into their old app.
