Gmail on mobile now supports native end-to-end encryption for eligible enterprise users

Google has rolled out native client-side end-to-end encryption (E2EE) to Gmail’s Android and iOS apps for Workspace customers with Enterprise Plus licenses (and related add-ons). Users can compose and read E2EE emails directly in the Gmail app, while recipients on other services can read them in a web browser; keys are user-controlled and stored outside Google’s servers, with admin setup via the CSE Admin Console.

Gmail Gets a Fresh Start: Change Your Email Address (Once a Year)

Google is rolling out in the US a new option to change your Gmail address (they call it your 'account username') with a limit of once per year. To switch, go to Personal info > Email in your Google Account (or Gmail Settings > Manage Your Google Account on mobile). Your old emails will continue to arrive at the old address, and no data is lost during the transition. This can help users who want to fix a deadname or adopt a more professional email. If you’d rather avoid Google altogether, Proton Mail is highlighted as a privacy-focused alternative that can import data from Google.

Gmail now lets you rename your address without starting from scratch

Google is rolling out a US-wide option to change the Gmail username (the part before @gmail) without creating a new account. You can switch once per 12 months, with data intact and the old address kept as an alias you can still log in with; some services may still show the old handle, and Chromebook users may need to re-login and back up data due to related caveats.

Gmail as an AI Assistant: Google's plan to make your inbox a relationship-aware hub

Google is reimagining Gmail as a proactive, relationship-aware AI assistant that can triage and surface what’s important, draft replies, and act on your behalf while you work. It’s exploring an AI Inbox in a separate tab to protect current workflows, but the plan is early, not promised, and centers on trust and privacy as it scales to billions of users.

Gmail Users: Disable This AI-Training Opt-In Now

Gmail has an automatic opt-in that allows Google to access your emails and attachments to train AI models. You can opt out in two places on desktop (Settings > General > Smart features and Manage Workplace smart feature settings) and on mobile (Settings > Data privacy > Smart features / Google Workspace smart features). Turning off these features may disable tools like Smart Compose, inbox categorization, and spell-check, but it gives you privacy control. The piece notes privacy concerns and reports of a class-action, though Google says Gmail content isn’t used to train Gemini.
