Google’s Gmail app for Android gets ‘quick reply’ option: How it works

Google has started rolling out the new Gmail app for Android that features a new design and an option for quick replies. The “Quick Reply” option on Gmail app for Android lets you reply to emails without necessitating the steps to open full-screen compose mail.

The US-based software giant has been testing quick replies in Gmail app for Android since November 2023 and has officially launched the feature, which will be available with Android’s May Feature Drop.

Earlier, you would need to tap the reply button at the bottom of the mail to open the compose box on the screen where you could type the message.
