Launch Summary
In March 2021, We are announcing several improvements to the web version of Google Chat (i.e. chat.google.com) and Chat Progressive Web App (AWP). At that time, the changes were only released for domains that had the Gmail service activated.
Starting June 30, 2021, we will also release the changes for domains that have the Gmail service disabled. The new interface offers users a consistent and predictable chat experience across the Gmail Chat and Standalone Chat platforms. It also includes new integrations that help with productivity; see original announcement for more information .
