Gmail’s New Design is Now By Default! No Way to Revert to its Old Look?

Gmail's new look is now the standard design for all its users. Google has announced that it is ditching the option that lets them revert to the interface before the redesign.

So if you are still clinging to the older design of Gmail, you might have to start getting used to the new looks that Google introduced this 2022.

Gmail's New Design is Now the Standard Look for All Users

As per the latest news story by Tech Crunch, Google says that the new interface of Gmail is going to be the new standard design for everyone using the email platform.

For those who might have missed it, the renowned search engine started rolling out the new look of Gmail in the early months of 2022.

However, even though Google began dishing out a new interface for its email service, it still gave its users an option to opt for old look.

And as such, Gmail users have two interface options. So if you are not a fan of the new Material You design, you can still stick with the old look.

But this time, Google announced that it is getting rid of the option that enables users to switch from two varying interfaces.

The tech behemoth confirmed in its latest blog post that the new look of Gmail is going to be the new standard or default look.

The post says that "the integrated view with Gmail, Chat, Spaces, and Meet on the left side of the window will also become standard for users who have turned on Chat."

So it looks like Gmail users will be forced to deal with the new interface. However, Tech Crunch notes in its story that some folks who still cling to the older look might not welcome this move.

Gmail Redesign: What's New

According to a recent report by The Verge, the "integrated" view sports a "very blue" and bubbly look. It comes as the buttons all over the interface have become curvier.

Not to mention that the typeface of the new look rocks the Google Sans Text and the Material Design 3 font.

The redesign of Gmail is also parallel to the current look of other Workspace Apps, such as Calendar and Docs, to name a few.

Given that, it gives the email service a more modern overall aesthetic. However, if you are used to the old look, it might take some time before you get used to the new design. As Google makes it the new standard look, you do not have any choice but to do so.
