Google has pushed out an update to the official Gmail app for Android that includes full support for the Nexus 7 running Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. It’s available to download now on the Google Play store.
Although the Gmail app was customized for the Nexus 7 out of the box, this update improves support for the 7 inch form factor. There doesn’t seem to be any major changes to the UI that we can see, except the Reply, Reply All, and Forward options are no longer hidden in a drop down menu, and instead have been brought out as icons next to the top bar that shows the sender address. There still isn’t a way to zoom in and out of messages, which seems to be the most requested feature from users.
For now, this update seems to be all about improvements and bug fixes, but the improved support for 7-inch tablets is a welcome update nonetheless.
