Google apps are cool and all, but they can get bloated (we're looking at you, Chrome), sucking up your resources like there's no tomorrow.
This is typically manageable on powerful devices, but if you have an entry-level smartphone, it's probably struggling to keep up. Google has launched "Go" versions of some popular apps for precisely this reason, but some of them are only available for Android Go devices. However, 9to5Google has noticed that Gmail Go has quietly been made available to all Android devices.
Gmail Go looks pretty much like regular Gmail, with minor design differences. 9to5Google says the app's frame rate has been capped, meaning it might not appear as fluid. Some features, such as Meet integration, is missing, but all of the crucial stuff is there.
Credit: GoogleIn the app's description on Play Store, Google doesn't say much about these differences, except for pointing out that Gmail Go is the "Gmail you love, now lighter and just as fast." Presumably, Gmail Go should be less of a memory hog than the regular version of Gmail, so it's probably worth trying out.

But the good news here is that Gmail Go is available to all Android owners, so you can just go ahead and download it right now.
If you're interested, other "Go" apps you can freely download include Google Go, Gallery Go and Google Maps Go. Notably, YouTube Go and Assistant Go also exist, but those are only available on Android Go phones.
