    “You can combine this with existing notification features like the ability to customize which messages you receive notifications for and set up different sounds for individual labels,” Google software engineer Andy Huang says in a blog post. “So if you filter and label all the messages from your mom, you could set a ringtone to let you know you received a new mail from her and then quickly reply (because we know what can happen when you ignore your mother!).”

    The feature is only available for Android 4.1 and up. The app also comes with better search suggestions and faster search, according to Google.
