Google launches Gmailify, even on the best of Gmail e-mail to third parties

Since early 2015, the Gmail application for Android allows you to manage e-mail accounts from outside the Gmail service. The company now offers an even more radical approach by introducing Gmailify, ie a system that allows you to use the best of the mail service Gmail also features with third-party addresses. Among these we mention the protection from spam, the emails coming organization, integration with Google Now.


This means that with through the web-app in the Gmail Mobile will not only be possible to manage email from other providers, such as Yahoo or Outlook, but also do it as if they were in fact in all respects hosted on Google's servers. It is a feature very useful for example for those who want to use the excellent advanced services of Google's email management, but is forced to use other providers. Gmailify is disabled by default and must be enabled by the user.

The function can be used in both the mobile app for Android that the mail.google.com web site. To activate it, simply go into the Settings screen, select a non-Gmail account and then choose to connect your account. In this way will enable the advanced features of Gmail also on third party account, which transaction is wholly reversible - as keen to point out the company on the official post - since it can be deactivated at any time by the user.

In addition to using the Google spam protection service, third-party e-mail will be organized as if they were real Gmail. The inbox can be organized according to the type (Social, Promotions), while it will be possible to perform advanced searches with the typical tag Gmail. Mobile email notifications on the third party will be more reliable, and the information contained in emails (booking flights or hotels for example) will appear on Google Now.

At the time of writing Gmailify works exclusively on Yahoo and Hotmail / Outlook, but Google promises that account will soon be added full support for additional third-party provider.

The Silent Revolution of On-Device AI: Why the Cloud Is No Longer King

Introduction For years, artificial intelligence has meant one thing: the cloud. Whether you’re asking ChatGPT a question, editing a photo with AI tools, or getting recommendations on Netflix — those decisions happen on distant servers, not your device. But that’s changing. Thanks to major advances in silicon, model compression, and memory architecture, AI is quietly migrating from giant data centres to the palm of your hand. Your phone, your laptop, your smartwatch — all are becoming AI engines in their own right. It’s a shift that redefines not just how AI works, but who controls it, how private it is, and what it can do for you. This article explores the rise of on-device AI — how it works, why it matters, and why the cloud’s days as the centre of the AI universe might be numbered. What Is On-Device AI? On-device AI refers to machine learning models that run locally on your smartphone, tablet, laptop, or edge device — without needing constant access to the cloud. In practi...

Apple’s AI Push: Everything We Know About Apple Intelligence So Far

Apple’s WWDC 2025 confirmed what many suspected: Apple is finally making a serious leap into artificial intelligence. Dubbed “Apple Intelligence,” the suite of AI-powered tools, enhancements, and integrations marks the company’s biggest software evolution in a decade. But unlike competitors racing to plug AI into everything, Apple is taking a slower, more deliberate approach — one rooted in privacy, on-device processing, and ecosystem synergy. If you’re wondering what Apple Intelligence actually is, how it works, and what it means for your iPhone, iPad, or Mac, you’re in the right place. This article breaks it all down.   What Is Apple Intelligence? Let’s get the terminology clear first. Apple Intelligence isn’t a product — it’s a platform. It’s not just a chatbot. It’s a system-wide integration of generative AI, machine learning, and personal context awareness, embedded across Apple’s OS platforms. Think of it as a foundational AI layer stitched into iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and m...

Max Q: Anomalous

Hello and welcome back to Max Q! Last week wasn’t the most successful for spaceflight missions. We’ll get into that a bit more below. In this issue: First up, a botched launch from Virgin Orbit… …followed by one from ABL Space Systems News from Rocket Lab, World View and more Virgin Orbit’s botched launch highlights shaky financial future After Virgin Orbit’s launch failure last Monday, during which the mission experienced an  “anomaly” that prevented the rocket from reaching orbit, I went back over the company’s financials — and things aren’t looking good. For Virgin Orbit, this year has likely been completely turned on its head. The company was aiming for three launches this year, but everything will remain grounded until the cause of the anomaly has been identified and resolved. It’s unclear how long that will take, but likely at least three months. Add this delay to Virgin’s dwindling cash reserves and you have a foundation that’s suddenly much shakier than before. ...
