Source: Google is making summary cards in Gmail even more useful - NeowinGmail's summary cards provide helpful information about orders and deliveries at the top of an email, and they are supported in the Gmail app for Android, iPhone, and iPad.
Today, Google announced that it is making big improvements to summary cards in Gmail. Google has refreshed the summary cards' UI and now displays new action buttons in addition to the information previously shown. Examples of action buttons include "Get directions," "Invite others," "Track package," "Check in," "Remind me," or "Mark as paid." Also, the new summary cards are dynamic, so you will always have the latest information.
The updated summary cards will be displayed for the following email categories:
- Purchases: Track packages, view order details, and easily find what you ordered.
- Events: See or add upcoming events to your calendar, invite others, or find directions with ease.
- Bills: View and pay bills, get reminded to pay later, or add a due date in Google Tasks.
- Travel: Manage reservations, check in for flights, and view important travel details like the hotel's check-out time.
