Gmail for Android starts receiving this new redesigned interface, here’s what has changed

Google recently rolled out the Material You redesign to the Android version of the Gmail app and soon after that, it seems that the company has started rolling out another redesign for the app. Although it’s not a major redesign, it just makes things crispier — design-wise– for the app.
9to5Google has reported that Gmail for Android has started receiving a small design change for the bottom ribbon labels. The Gmail app on Android is losing the ‘labels’ beneath the icons at the bottom ribbon.
Gmail app redesign: What’s new
If you can remember, the Gmail app currently has labels written beneath the icons like Mail, Chat, Spaces and Meet. According to the report, some users have a Gmail version without labels and it is now rolling out to more users across the globe.
Meanwhile, the removal of the labels made the bottom ribbon a little thinner. However, that does not mean you’ll be able to see more within the section or more emails on a single page.

We also checked for the same with our colleagues and we could see the new label-less design in our Gmail app on Android smartphones. Also, the change is a server-side update and it is available for us with Gmail for Android version 2022.08..07.x.
Also, it is not clear whether the new redesign is a part of the latest update or it will be available to users running the slightly older version of the Gmail app as well.
