The editor of Downcodes learned that Google is extending the "Help me write" function to the Gmail web version. This feature uses Gemini AI to help users create or polish emails. When users open a new draft email in Gmail, they will see a prompt to use this feature, which is consistent with the mobile experience.
Google is extending "Help me write" to the web version of Gmail, allowing users to use Gemini AI to craft or tweak emails. Just like on mobile devices, users will see a prompt to use the feature when they open a blank draft in Gmail.
However, it should be noted that this "write for me" function is not available to everyone. Only users who subscribe to Google One AI Premium or have the Gemini Workspace plug-in can experience it. In addition to being able to generate email drafts, "Write for Me" can also give you suggestions on how to make the email more formal, detailed or shorter depending on your needs.
In addition, Google has also added a shortcut to the "Polish" option in the "Write for Me" toolset. If your draft is longer than 12 words, you'll see this shortcut. Users can quickly optimize the content of the email by clicking this shortcut or directly entering Ctrl + H.
On mobile, this option replaces the original "Retouch My Draft" shortcut. As you swipe, you no longer have to choose between polishing, formalizing, elaborating, or shortening options; instead, your message is automatically optimized. Afterwards, users can also use Google's other AI editing tools to further adjust the email content.
This new feature will be gradually rolled out on the web starting today, so you can look forward to it.
This new feature of the Gmail web version provides users with a more convenient email writing experience. With the support of Gemini AI, the "Write for Me" function can not only generate email drafts, but also adjust the tone and length of emails according to user needs, improving email writing efficiency. The editor of Downcodes recommends that eligible users experience this function as soon as possible and feel the convenience brought by AI.
