Google’s new ‘Gmailify’ feature brings 'best of Gmail' to non-Gmail users

On Wednesday, tech giant Google announced, via a blog post, that it has launched a new tool called ‘Gmailify’, to give non-Gmail users the ability to access the best features of Google’s popular Gmail email service.

The new ‘Gmailify’ features enables users to link their existing email accounts on Microsoft Outlook, Hotmail, or Yahoo Mail, to avail the advantages of the ‘perks’ offered by the Google email service, without changing their current email address.

Some of the most noteworthy Gmail ‘perks’ which can now be availed by non-Gmail users via the Gmailify feature include advanced spam detection and blocking mechanism, a tabbed inbox for better organization of emails, and Google Now cards, among several others.

Announcing the new Gmailify feature, Google said in the blog post that initially the feature works only works with Microsoft Outlook and Yahoo Mail. However, the company has efforts underway to expand the availability of the Gmailify feature to more email providers in the future.

Google also said that the rollout of the Gmailify feature will “bring the best of Gmail to more people,” and added: “Many of you would like more of Gmail's powerful features, like spam protection and inbox organization, on these accounts -- but don't want to go through the hassle of changing your email address.”
