Gmail Username Change: Finally Here!

Google began activating a new option to modify username in addresses that maintain termination @gmail.com. Access to the account will continue to be available under the new and old name. The digital signature moved forward with this measure after years without allowing changes to accounts created directly in Gmail.

The company explained on its support page that addresses ending in @gmail.com They did not allow modifications. However, a rollout has begun that enables adjustments to the username without altering the termination.

The announcement circulated in the Telegram group Google Pixel Hub and by a support page on Google India. In both spaces it was indicated that the function is already underway and that the change remains within the same domain.

Google indicated that data, message log and settings of the account will not be altered. The measure facilitates the use of email in cases of loss of the original name or preference for another digital identity.

The adjustment can only be executed three times in total. After each modification you must wait 12 months to apply an additional change. The system will allow the user to log in with the new address and also with the old addresswhich will remain as alias.

The company recommended carrying out a backup before making changes. The function still not available globally and continues in the deployment phase.
