sometimes will show you a popup to go to the email sender’s website where you can unsubscribe,” the report added.

would scan the entire email for the unsubscribe link and place it on top of the email as a prominent button for convenient use.

This update will be coming to Android smartphones as part of the latest update of Gmail 2023.11.12, as per the report. There’s no official word if the feature would eventually make it to iOS.

Additionally, Gmail on Android is also getting a predictive back navigation feature, according to the report. This feature, which simplifies going back to the previous page on Gmail, will only work on smartphones running Android 14. Both new Gmail features are reportedly hidden behind flags at the moment and should roll out soon to all eligible Gmail users on Android devices.

Last month, Gmail was also reported to be working on bringing emoji reactions on both iOS and Android, which would let email recipients respond to mails with emojis, much like the feature that already exists on
