Getting rid of unwanted newsletters is now a two-tap operation in many cases
- Gmail for Android now has a prominent unsubscribe button at the top of emails, making it easier to opt out of unwanted mass emails.
- The unsubscribe button appears differently depending on how the publisher implemented it, either asking for confirmation or redirecting to the newsletter’s unsubscribe website.
- The unsubscribe button is rolling out gradually and may not be available for everyone, but the old route of using the top overflow menu and selecting the unsubscribe option is still accessible.
Gmail has long offered a way to quickly unsubscribe from unwanted mass emails in its web app with a button right within the header. Just after this button underwent a design change to become more prominent, Google is finally giving that same option a prominent place in its Gmail Android app.
Like in the web app, the new unsubscribe button is positioned right at the top of emails in Gmail for Android.
