Google is rolling out a feature to its iOS Gmail app that will let people receive notifications only for messages deemed high priority.
Google says the optional feature relies on machine learning and artificial intelligence to identify messages that the recipient may want to read first. A new “High Priority Only” option appears in the Notifications drop-down in Gmail’s settings. Users will need to select it if they wish to test the scaled-back notifications.
The feature is already available to the latest Gmail app for iOS and will reach Gmail for Android devices soon.
