Gmail is Google’s free email service, used by over 1.8 billion people (Statista 2023). A Gmail ID isn’t just for emails—it unlocks Google Drive, YouTube, and Google Photos.

The video uses a helpful analogy: Your Gmail username is like an Aadhaar number—unique to you. No two users can share the same username, so you might need to add numbers or letters if your first choice is taken.
