Google We are working on a feature that will enable users to change their @gmail.com email address, that too without creating a new account and without losing the old data. That means all your mail, photos, drive files, YouTube account, everything will remain there. Just your email name will be updated.

This change is not small. In fact, this is considered to be the biggest and longest sought feature in the history of Gmail.

Till now the problem was that if someone wanted to change his Gmail ID, he had to create a completely new account. Then the headache started. Bank, UPI, social media, office tools, government website, updating new email everywhere. Due to this hassle, many people kept carrying their childhood ID for years. Now Google is preparing to end this problem.

Will be able to choose a new username

Under the new system, users will be able to choose a new Gmail address within their existing Google account. The special thing is that the old email will not be completely closed. He will continue to act as a backup or alias. That means if someone sends a mail to your old address, it will also reach the same inbox. Meaning the identity will change, but the connection will not be broken.

However, Google is not leaving this feature completely open. Some limits are also being placed to avoid misuse and fake identification. Like once the email is changed, permission to change it again will not be given immediately.

There will be a gap of fixed time. Apart from this, email can be changed only limited times in one account. This means that this facility is not being given to change the name again and again but for the right reason.

Name could have been changed, not username.

Another thing that is being made clear is that changing the display name of Gmail and changing the real email address are two different things. The display name could already be changed, but the original @gmail.com address remained fixed till now. The new feature will provide the facility to change this real address.

The impact of this change will not be limited to personal users only. For professionals, freelancers, content creators and those who had created a strange ID without thinking years ago, this will be an opportunity for them like digital rebranding.

Although it is not official, but signs related to it started appearing in the support section of Google. Screenshots have also started being shared in many leaks. That means some people are seeing this option. It is believed that the company will gradually roll it out in different countries, so that security and misuse can be controlled.

Google has not yet announced the official date, but it is clear that this feature is not coming suddenly, but after a long time of preparation.
