The True Post(Web News) Google is preparing to introduce a feature that has been requested for years, providing a great convenience to its users.
Most people have created email addresses at a young age or in ignorance that later become a source of embarrassment in their professional lives, but now Google has come up with a possible solution to this problem. According to the new update, Gmail users are being given the opportunity to change their current email address, that too in such a way that their old data, emails and other information will remain safe.
According to the information revealed on Google’s account help page, this feature has currently been introduced on a limited scale and is initially available only in India. Interestingly, the complete instructions related to this feature are currently only available on Google’s Hindi language support page, which suggests that the company has started this facility on an experimental basis from India. However, it has also been clarified on the same page that in the future this facility will be provided to users in other countries in a phased manner.
According to technology experts, this feature is great news for millions of users who had created frivolous or inappropriate email addresses in their childhood or adolescence and later faced problems using them in professional or official matters. Until now, Google’s policy was that once an email address was created, it could not be changed, however, a new account could be created, which caused difficulties in losing or transferring old data.
Interestingly, Google’s English-language support page still contains the same old information, which clearly states that Gmail addresses cannot be changed. This discrepancy has created more curiosity among users as to whether this feature will actually be launched globally or not. However, the details given on the Hindi page definitely suggest that Google is working seriously in this direction. On
the other hand, no official statement has been made by Google in this regard so far, however, technology experts say that the company usually introduces such features in phases to avoid any technical glitches or security issues. It is expected that this facility will be available to users around the world in the coming months.
If this feature is introduced globally, it could prove to be a significant update in Google’s history, because for the first time, users will have the freedom to change the email address associated with their identity, that too without losing data. This has given hope to millions of people to get rid of years of embarrassment.
