Since July, Google has rolled out a new look for Gmail. And while many users love it, others would prefer to go back to the old look. If you're one of those longing for the good old days, you can journey back to the old Gmail with just a few clicks.
- Open Gmail
- Click the Settings Gear icon in the upper right corner
- When the Quick settings panel appears, select Go back to the original view
Image source: Gmail (a service of Google, Inc.)
- A pop-up asks, "Why are you returning to the original Gmail view?” You can either provide details or simply ignore the inquiry and select Reload. [Note: If you change your mind and want to stay on the new view, click Cancel.]

- Upon clicking Reload, you should find your Gmail looks, feels and acts like the old way. If not, just hit refresh and it should be the Gmail you have always loved.
