Google has added a new feature that lets people change their Gmail username. This means you can change the part before “@gmail.com” without making a new account. This feature is already available in the United States and is slowly coming to other countries.

Many people made their email accounts a long time ago. At that time, they chose fun or silly names. But now, those names may feel embarrassing or not suitable for work. Before this update, the only way to fix it was to create a new email account. But that also meant losing old emails, contacts, and important data.

Now, things are finally much easier. You can go to your Google Account settings, click on your profile picture, then select Manage your Google Account option. After that, go to Personal Info, tap on Email, and follow the steps to change your username. It is a simple process and does not take much time.

And the best thing is that your old email address will still work. It will be saved as another email linked to your account. You will still get emails sent to your old address, and you can also use it if needed. This helps you stay connected and not miss anything important.

However, there are a few limits. You can change your username only once every 12 months. Also, you can only create up to three new usernames in total. This new feature is very helpful. It lets you fix your old email name easily without losing your data.
