Google is now letting users in the US change their Gmail address
In Brief
Posted:
Google said on Tuesday that it is now rolling out a way for users in the U.S. to change their Gmail address without starting over or losing access to their data.
Users who have access to this feature can go to their Google Account settings, navigate to Personal info> Email > Google Account email option to see a “Change Google Account email” button. Tap on the button to start the process of changing your username.
Users will be able to change their username only once every 12 months. Plus, they won’t be able to delete their new email address for that period of time.
The company said users’ old emails will be preserved, and the old email address will serve as an alternate address for the account. Users will be able to sign in to Google services using both the old and the new addresses.
Google was rolling out this change in some Hindi-speaking territories, as noted by 9to5Google, which noticed the Hindi support page describing the process to change the username.
The company’s support page says the feature is rolling out gradually, and users might not immediately have access to it.
