Two years ago Gmail launched <\/span>email annotations for Promotions tab<\/span><\/a>. This allows emails to feature a prominent image along with accompanying labels for offers beneath the subject line of the email in the Gmail App.<\/span><\/p>\n

At launch, Gmail only featured the annotated emails on the top two spots in a special \u201cTop Deals\u201d section in the Promotions tab. This meant only a few emails were displayed with these special features at a time.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Annotations are appearing in the main list\u2026 randomly.<\/b><\/h3>\n

Originally, the remaining emails in the Promotions tab list (under the header Remaining Promotions) did not display the annotations even though they might contain annotations in the email.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, it is looking like Gmail is starting to display emails with annotations in the main list.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Granted this seems like a test as Gmail seems to be doing this randomly, so not all emails with annotations will have their annotations displayed.<\/span><\/p>\n

Either way, this looks like an interesting development!<\/span><\/p>\n

Testing email annotations<\/b><\/h3>\n

If you\u2019re interested in testing annotations in your email, you can send a test to yourself using this Annotations generator tool<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
