Formatting panel

The Gmail composing screen now features a formatting bar at the bottom of the screen that includes all the necessary options for editing text, such as changing the font and creating bulleted lists.

List of keyboard shortcuts

When you connect an external keyboard to your Galaxy Tab or Galaxy Fold, Gmail provides a list of useful keyboard shortcuts. To view this list, open Gmail, go to the compose screen, and press the "?" button on your keyboard.
