Gmail Updated To v4.9 With Google Drive File Attachment [APK Download]

Update Wednesday is in full swing today with Chromecast, Google Camera, and now Gmail. It’s not the Material Design update you were hoping for, but Gmail v4.9 adds at least one new feature in the form of Google Drive integration.

  

What’s New

The only new thing we’ve seen so far is an option to attach files from Google Drive. It’s in the action overflow menu right next to the standard attach command. You can choose the file from a popup Drive window and it will be added to the message in a single step. Handy, but not revolutionary. As usual, we’ll keep digging and will update if anything else is found.

Download

The APK is signed by Google and upgrades your existing app. The cryptographic signature guarantees that the file is safe to install and was not tampered with in any way. Rather than wait for Google to push this download to your devices, which can take days, download and install it just like any other APK.

File name: com.google.android.gm-4.9 (1266230).apk.

Version: 4.9 (1266230) (Android 4.0+).

MD5: 209879841bdababeaa7fbcb9e90a5ad7.
