Gmail is getting more interactive.

If you use Gmail on your phone, you'll soon be able to complete tasks like RSVPing for events or responding to a Google Docs comment without leaving your inbox, Google said Thursday. 

The search giant calls this "dynamic email." It came to Gmail on the web in July. Now, it's arriving in the iOS and Android versions of Gmail too

"You can open an email and view the most up-to-date order status of an e-commerce order or the latest job postings," Google said in a blog post. Google began rolling out the feature on Thursday.
