“People currently using the Labs version of ‘Undo Send’ will have the setting turned on by default at launch,” Google said in a statement.

Instagram taps into real-time events and trends
Instagram is rolling out a completely new Explore page in order to help users find real-time events both in their area as well as around the world.
The update is aimed at capitalising on the fact that users often capture newsworthy events on Instagram.
“Whether it’s behind the scenes at the NBA Finals, on the runway with the latest fashion trend at a favorite club with a local band, people are capturing moments large and small on Instagram,” the company said in a statement.
“But, until now, there’s never been an easy way to find these moments.”
The new Explore page will only be available in the United States, but will be rolled out to other countries once Instagram “fine tune[s] the experience” for users.
