You can still see the soon-arriving package cards. The tab houses shipping updates, order confirmations, and more. Google is making it easier to keep an eye on all of your online purchases. In an announcement Thursday, the company unveiled a new Purchases tab in Gmail that combines all of your purchase and tracking updates in one place. The Purchases tab gives you an overview in your email inbox of your online shopping, including "all purchase-related emails and package updates," the company said. When you click on it, you'll see order confirmations, shipping and delivery updates, and more. You'll still see the existing feature (which rolled out last year) that shows soon-arriving package information at the top of your inbox, but you can also see updates on packages set to arrive further out. Also: I unlocked 15GB more Gmail storage for free - without deleting a single email or file The new tab, which sounds a lot like Apple's "transactions" mail category that rolled out not too long ago, will sit on the left pane of your Gmail inbox alongside other labels like starred, important, manage subscriptions (you can use that to quickly and easily clear out your inbox, by the way), and scheduled. Google said this tab will start going live Thursday for both mobile and web users. If you don't see it now, you should soon. A more relevant promotions tab Google Also new is an updated promotions tab. If you generally avoid this tab because it's nothing but marketing emails, Google is giving you a reason to check it out. You'll soon be able to sort promotions by most relevant, Google explained, meaning you'll see messages first from the senders and brands you interact with. You'll also see "nudges" that highlight upcoming deals or offers that might be expiring soon. If you want to keep your promotions tab as it is, you can revert to "most recent" instead of "most relevant." Want to follow my work? Add ZDNET as a trusted source on Google.
