Earlier this year, Google added quick action buttons in Gmail. They seem on messages inside the inbox, and permit users to do so on them without even having to open them.
Initial examples included such things as checking in for flights, responding to event invites, reviews, confirming registrations, etc.
Today, Google announced that it has added more sorts of quick actions.
“For example, you are able to rate and review restaurants you ordered from on Seamless or even modify OpenTable reservations—all without opening an email,” writes Google’s Claudio Cherubino in a blog post. “And for the deal lovers in the market, you could conveniently save a promotion from Google Offers with one click, making it easy to seek out and purchase it when you’re ready.”
“If you’re an avid uploader of YouTube and Vimeo videos, you could view finished uploads with a single click with the hot ‘View video’ button,” Cherubino adds. “Similarly, you also can speedily open a Dropbox folder or Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides which have been shared with you.”
