Gmail for Android: Account Switcher & Attachment Menu Updates

Gemini Tweaks in Gmail for Android: Account Switcher Returns, Attachment Menu Refreshed

Account Switcher Restored

Google is testing a change in Gmail for Android, returning the account switcher to its original top-right position. Previously, the Gemini side panel ("Gmail Q&A") had displaced the switcher. This update restores consistency with other Google apps. Learn more about Gemini.

Attachment Menu Update

Gmail's attachment menu is also getting a refresh. A new menu now offers options for Photos, Camera, Files, and Drive, with a new shortcut for taking pictures directly. This streamlined menu makes attaching files easier. For tips on managing files, see Optimizing Your Windows 11 Experience.
