New features in Google apps

In this month of July Google have added more than a dozen new features in Google Apps. Google have also made some design changes in Gmail and Google Calender, couple of mobile compatibilities and more. Some of my favourite features in Google Apps are listed below.

New looks for Gmail and Google Calender

A couple of weeks ago Google have come up with cool refreshing design changes in Gmail and Google Calender to make them more consistent and more happening with other google products . The idea is to make the interfaces even more focused, elastic and effortless. If you would like to experience new look go to Settings >> Themes and select Preview (Dense) or Preview and Google Calender

Make multiple calls in Gmail

Earlier before Google have added the ability to place phone calls to land lines and mobile phones from your Gmail. Now Google have improve this feature by allowing multiple simultaneous calls. Now you can put your first call on hole to pick up your incoming call or you can place a second call by putting first call on hold.

Select favourite inbox style

Google have added new feature to let you choose an inbox layout that suits you best. Now you can decide between Priority Inbox, important messages first, starred messages first or unread messages first—or stick with a classic inbox style.

Phishing detection

Phishing messages are a form of spam that attempt to deceive recipients in order to gain access to their personal information. But now Gmail will automatically display more information about the origin of certain messages you receive so you can be better informed and protect yourself from getting tricked. If someone fakes a message from a sender that you trust, like your bank, you can more easily see that the message is not really from where it says it’s from. Google have added the feature to display the full email address of the sender who is not in your contacts and also show you when messages come from an email-sending service (like a news site’s article sharing system) and display a warning when it looks like the sender may have spoofed a Gmail address.

View Zip and RAR file without downloading

Google have added a very cool feature to view the content of zip or RAR files without downloading and extracting.This is the most safest and fastest way of viewing attachments than opening potentially harmful files with software on your computer.

PPTX support and spreadsheet keyboard short cut cheat sheet

Google have added a new feature of Read receipts for those organisations who use Gmail. Administrators of Google Apps for Business and Government can activate read receipts from the control panel. Administrators can control which users can request or return read receipts, and whether receipts are issued automatically or manually by recipients.

More options for videos in Google Docs
