Google is rolling out a new Gmail layout. Dubbed as "integrated view," the new layout brings a single unified interface for Gmail Chat, Mail, Spaces, and Meet. The new layout is being brought to many users automatically by default, however, those who want to stick to the older Gmail layout have an opt-out option in the settings menu. The users who, for some reason, did not get this new Gmail layout automatically can switch to the Gmail quick settings. Google in one of its support blog wrote, "Google's Mail, Chat, Spaces, and Meet apps are now integrated into the Gmail main menu. The main menu of each app is displayed in a collapsible panel. You can hide or show the collapsible panel at any time." The new user Interface has brought a skinny rail column in the left and enables users to preview messages by hovering over the notification bubble.
