Google has brought in a new updated feature in Gmail called summary cards for tracking events, purchases and much more. Users can track the important details of their everyday lives that sometimes get forgotten amid all the emails and apps.

Although this is not a new feature, Google is bringing in some changes to assist users with inbox management. One update will come from the design of the summary cards. The feature will be receiving a revamped look across travel emails, events, purchases and more. It will also bring action buttons including bill payment reminders. Users can also add events to their calendars and invite their friends, colleagues and more.

The new update will also make the feature's backend more powerful. The new updated cards will be viewable in four email categories, such as Purchases, Events, Bills, and Travel. Under purchases, users will be able to track their packages and view their order details. As for the Events section, users can set reminders for an event and also invite their friends and family. Users can even view and pay their bills. They can also set reminders to pay their bills later by adding a due date on Google Tasks. In addition, users can also manage their hotel reservations, flight tickets and hotel check-out timings.
