As happens in the app and video game stores of each of the most important OS of the moment, such as iOS and Android, where we can see Google apps in the App Store or iOS apps in the Google Play Store, the same is happening with email providers of each of the main players in that category such as Gmail, Outlook or Yahoo! In December of last year Yahoo announced that any user You could use your Gmail account in the Yahoo mail client so that all incoming mail from different accounts can be managed from the same app, regardless of their origin. An interesting bet on these services that are being integrated between them to offer greater advantages to users, although they will always look after their own, logically.
The own Google started with this policy change last year when you allowed non-Gmail accounts in your Gmail app, but let's say you would lose all of those remarkable Google features that come with this app. Now, you can get all those Google features in your email without having to migrate to a Gmail email address. Google has called it "Gmailify". At the moment Gmailify works for the moment with Yahoo and Outlook / Hotmail. You only have to activate Gmailify and at the moment you will get certain features that were previously only available in the addresses of the Google mail client.
Gmailify your non-Gmail account
We are not going to be surprised by Google's way of calling these adaptations to new ways of offering services to users. If Yahoo announced it very briefly the ability to manage your Gmail account from its Android app, Google gives a name and everything to a series of features that you will get when managing your non-Gmail account from Gmail itself.
These are its characteristics:
- Spam protection Gmail
- Automatic classification of emails based on the type they are: social, updates, promotions
- Faster search with advanced search operators
- Hotel and travel reservations automatically appear in Google Now
- All your emails in one place
- Better email notifications on mobile
The democratization of Gmail
One of the most powerful aspects of Gmailify is the spam filter, which is of a higher quality than that used by other email providers. If we add to this the ability to organize your inbox depending on the type of emails they are, a great capacity is given to that management of emails that come from Yahoo or Hotmail / Outlook.
So aspects such as archiving, brands or folders will be active for your Yahoo or Hotmail accounts. Google also promises that will soon offer support to more email providers in the future. To link the account to Gmail is as easy as opening Google's own on a device, go to the menu, select settings, click on the account you want to link and click on the account.
A special feature that Google launches today with its Gmail to have all your accounts in one place. Let's say that a good goal is scored by providing those non-Gmail accounts with a series of obvious functionalities and to which we are all well used. We have highlighted Gmail's ability to classify emails by type and its great ability to spam. Two special virtues with which you can equip your Yahoo or Hotmail account so that from now on you only have an email client installed on your mobile phone.
The other great idea from Google is that after a user who has been staunch with his Yahoo! or Hotmail, he tries Gmail finally, and in time he realizes that is in front of a better client mail, so possibly little by little you will use your Gmail account more instead of those you used previously.
