Gmail boost: Now you can receive 50 MB attachments to your emails

-
Thanks to cloud file-sharing services like Google Drive, Microsoft's One Drive, and Dropbox, it's easy to share files via email of pretty much any size. Still, there might be an occasion when someone else wants to send you a massive file directly to your Gmail account.
Starting this week, Google will help Gmail users in this scenario by letting them open up any files of up to 50 megabytes (50MB) in size.
"While Google Drive offers a convenient way to share files of any size, sometimes you need to receive large files as direct email attachments. So starting today, you will be able to receive emails of up to 50MB directly," Google announced in a blogpost.

Android improves for work: Exchange Tasks now available on Gmail app

-
Android phone owners previously had to use a third party app for Exchange email, but Google updated Gmail last year to support Exchange. This week Google added support for Exchange Tasks. As I was setting up the LG G6 this week, I had to decide if I was going to use Gmail for Exchange or continue to use the Microsoft Outlook app that I have come to prefer on all of my phones. Given the support of Gmail calendar integration with LG's calendar, I decided to give Gmail for Exchange another try. Tasks are embedded within the Gmail app so you simply tap on the left three line menu icon to select the Tasks area of your Gmail Exchange account. Enter the title and add a note if you want, then select the due date, reminder time, and priority level of the task.My timing was perfect as Google announced yesterday that Exchange Tasks are now supported on the Gmail app. Thus, through the Gmail app I can now sync my work's email, contacts, calendar, and tasks. The Outloo...
