The presence of the Personal tab was first reported by a Twitter user two days back. This feature shows up only when you are logged into your Google account while searching the web from your browser. That aside, the tab is currently hidden for most users inside the ‘More’ option in the search results. So basically, you need to click on the ‘More’ tab and then select Personal to view this feature.
With the Personal tab, Google is trying to gather information related to your search term from your various GSuite accounts including Gmail and Google Photos library. Currently, on typing in a search term, it’s showing a string of related emails containing the same phrase from my Gmail account. Some users are also reporting that photos too are coming up in the personal tab section. It seems that the feature isn’t fully functional yet, and will be gradually rolling out to all Google users worldwide.
With that said, it would be interesting to see how the addition of this personal tab is accepted by millions of Google users worldwide. Is it really that useful? What do you think, let us know in the comments down below.
