9to5Google • • technology
Key Points:
- Google now allows users to change their Gmail address without deleting their account or creating a new one, a feature previously unavailable for "@gmail.com" addresses.
- The new option retains the old email address as an alias, so emails sent to either the old or new address will be received in the same account.
- Users can change their Gmail address up to three times, with a minimum interval of 12 months between changes.
- The feature is currently rolling out gradually and appears to be live in India, with instructions available for changing the email via the Google Account settings page.
- Some Google app settings may reset after changing the address, such as Gmail background or chat tab visibility, but these can be adjusted again manually.
