Gmail is a free email service that was first introduced in 2004. It has now grown to include over 1.5 billion active users worldwide. It is known for its cutting-edge features and ease of use. It also leads in security for its users. It also has the best spam detection capabilities.

When you want to create an account on Gmail, you'll need to input your name, email address, and password. You will then be asked for your date of birth and gender. You can also use a mobile phone to access your account. Alternatively, you can log in through the Gmail website. If you use your mobile phone, you'll need to provide a security code that will be sent to your phone through a text message or voice call.

You can also use the search bar to quickly find messages that are relevant to you. You can also use labels to organize your messages. You can even select the days and weeks that you want to see them.

When you're writing an email, you can use Smart Compose to automatically suggest words to you. You can also use the new Google Voicechat feature to speak with other Gmail users via phone. You can use the feature on any computer with a microphone. This service is available for free, and you can make calls in Canada and the United States. It works much like voice chat.
