Gmail for Android 4.2 brings Auto fit Messages, swipe to delete and more features

Well, after a very long time Gmail for Android 4.2 brings auto fit messages and zooming.  I am wondering why it took so long for Google to offer this feature.

Apple users got this feature in iOS since day 1 and I used to wonder why it was not available in Gmail.  Anyway, finally it is here.

Let’s see what else is new:

• Auto-fit messages to screen and message zooming
• Swipe messages to archive or delete
• Attach photos and videos from within Gmail
• Larger photo previews and gallery view for photo attachments
• New Labels API for 3rd-party app developers
• And other bug fixes and performance improvements

Considering the fact that Gmail is an email almost everyone uses now a day, this update brings some most sought features.

Note:

Auto fit messages are not enabled by default, you will have to go into setting to enable it.  See the image for clarification.
