Google has been improving Wear OS with a variety of new features, and apps. In line with these improvements, the company has just announced the Gmail app specifically designed for Wear OS smartwatches. The app allows users to manage their Gmail inboxes directly on their wrists. 

As reported by Android Police, Gmail for Wear OS is now available for download from the Google Play Store and works on all smartwatches running Wear OS 3 or 4. With this app, users can now view their inbox, read and reply to emails, and switch between multiple accounts right from their wrists.

Prior to this release, Wear OS users could only receive Gmail notifications—just like they could receive notifications from any other app—and take basic actions such as archiving, replying, or deleting emails. 

Moreover, as per 9to5Google, the app also supports a watch face complication that shows new emails. This doesn’t show all of your unread emails, but only the ones that have arrived recently.

In addition to the Gmail app, Google has also been working to bring other apps to WearOS, such as Google Calendar. However, it isn’t live yet, and the company hasn’t revealed when it plans to release it. We hope Google releases more native apps for Wear OS smartwatches.
