Microsoft Windows 10 Mail and Calendar will get Gmail support

When it comes to the more advanced features on Windows 10 Mail and Calendar, Microsoft is bringing Google users into its fold with its new update. The tech company is rolling out support first to Windows Insiders first. It won’t be coming in one fell swoop, too. If you’re excited to get support, you might or might not get it immediately.

The update will bring some important features to Google users, though. These include Focused Inbox, which automatically detects important emails from your inbox and shows you these first. Aside from that, users will also get travel reservation reminders and package tracking in the Calendar app. These features were previously limited to Outlook.com and Office 365 accounts. To get these features, though, you will need to sync your email, contacts, and calendars to Microsoft’s servers—in case you were concerned about this. But any changes you make to your Gmail account on Windows 10 and Calendar will sync with your Google account. So, if you’re looking for a viable desktop email client, Microsoft is making a case for that.
