TL;DR
- Google is inching closer to letting users change their Gmail.com email addresses.
- The company has updated its English-language support page with instructions on how to do so.
- It also notes that this feature is being rolled out gradually, so you might have to wait a while.
You’re generally out of luck if you’d like to change your Gmail address (ending in @gmail.com), forcing you to create a brand-new Google account instead. However, we recently saw evidence that Google could finally implement this functionality, and it looks like we’re ever closer to this possibility.
Google recently updated its English-language support page (h/t: Android Police) with instructions on how to change your Gmail address. This comes a few weeks after the company updated its Hindi-support page with these details.
