<p>Gmail has finally made the jump to version 2.0 on iOS, much to the joy of users of the Google-made email service. A whole new look and some much-needed feature additions like multiple account support make this a worthy upgrade for most, though power users may find the navigation troublesome.</p><p>Google has been making it a point to show its apps some more love these days. After an update to Gmail on its native OS of Android, Google decided to give iOS users a gift of a major update to its mobile mail client. The previous versions of the app on Apple devices left a lot to be desired and led to a lot of third party solutions, one of the best of which being Sparrow, which is now owned by Google. After six months of reworking its in-house offering, it's clear Google made something worth using as long as you don't compare it to it's Android equivalent.</p><p>After getting the update to the new look Gmail app, the first thing users will notice is an entire redesign to the interface. The previous theme of Gmail included dark colors and somewhat boring, rounded corners, and so-so fonts. Now bright colors, crisp texts, and sharp boxes. Even pulling down the menus to refresh or loading a message displays a multi-colored, animated ball that offers just a second of extra brightness to the experience.</p><p>It's not a deal-making feature or anything, but it's just a nice little touch that adds a bit of class to browsing mundane emails. That or it's a very clever cover up for some in-app lag, in which case it worked because it's distracting.</p><p><a href="http://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/gmail-2-0-hands-on-ios/">Keep reading...</a></p><p>Read also:</p><p><a href="http://rootzwiki.com/topic/37465-ios-sweet-new-google-apps/">iOS' sweet new Google Apps</a> (RootzWiki)</p><p>Explore: <a href="http://news.google.com/news/more?ncl=dMTYsnTVDwb7p1MoUXQxkzojjCz2M&ned=us">1,081 additional articles.</a></p>
