Gmail App for iOS Gains Support for Siri Shortcuts

Google today updated its Gmail app for iOS to add support for Siri Shortcuts.

With ‌Siri‌ Shortcuts, Gmail users can create a shortcut that will allow them to send an email using a ‌Siri‌ voice command. Sending an email is the only capability that Google has included at this time.

‌Siri‌ Shortcuts is a feature that Apple first introduced in iOS 12, so it has taken Google several months to implement support.

The shortcut for sending an email can be set up within the Settings section of the Gmail app or in the Shortcuts app. Gmail can be downloaded from the App Store for free. [Direct Link]

I have dark mode, but how about dark mode for all first? And the promised iOS Files app integration to attach files?

Gogole is all promises and no deliver. Just keep announcing useless features or some long rollout

I prefer Apple Mail a lot more. I also have Outlook but rather use Apple Mail.

If one of the many reasons you choose Apple and are willing to overpay them for their hardware is because they don’t deal in your private information you’re doing yourself a huge disservice by having a Gmail account. Very little in life is actually free.
