Gmail ever since they launched the service, back in 2004 and became very much obsessed with
it.

So today, Im sharing over 71 Gmail tips and tricks (including some less known features, secrets,
and settings) to enhance your Google Mail experience. Im sure it might take a while for you to
read through and get to the end. But once you do, there will be no looking back. You will change
the way you used Gmail. All for the better. Guaranteed!

Gmail Tips & Tricks Click To Scroll


When Gmail was launched the key features that distinguished it from its rivals were Search
(with an advanced function), 1 GB Free Storage (it was huge at that time because Hotmail was
offering only 2 MB and Yahoo 4 MB), Conversation View, Labels, Archive feature, Auto-refresh,
Auto-address Completion, Powerful Mail & Spam Filters, and a great user interface (thanks to
AJAX) with no banner ads.

To make this list more readable, I have organized all the tips and tricks into the following
categories:

Customizing Your Inbox

Decoding Your Gmail Address

Searching Your Inbox

Organizing Your Emails

Attaching Files

Increasing Your Productivity

Managing All Your Email Accounts

Securing Your Gmail Account

Extending Gmail With Add-ons

Customizing Your Inbox


First things first. Lets customize your inbox the way you want.

1. Change Display Density Comfortable, Cozy


If you have lot of emails in your inbox then you can adjust the Display density to make the
messages more readable.

2. Hide Labels, Circles, Categories & Chat


Do you know its possible to hide most of the unwanted options on the left sidebar in Gmail? You
can hide labels that you do not use and can hide other options like Categories, Circles, or even the
Chat option so that your sidebar appears clean.

You can either click the Show or Hide option next to each label or can go to Settings > Labels
to review all your labels, categories, and circles and hide them one by one. And, you can go to
Settings > Chat and choose the radio button Chat off to turn off chat in Gmail.

3. Disable Inbox Tabs


As you probably know Gmail organizes your messages into the following categories
automatically: Primary, Promotions, Social, Updates, Forums.

If you do not like the idea of Inbox Tabs then you can disable it completely by going to Settings
> Inbox and deselecting all of the available categories.

4. Multiple Inboxes

If you are using a lot of labels and filters then you will love the Multiple Inboxes labs
feature. As the name suggests, it creates extra inboxes within the default inbox so that you can see
more messages at once.

Go to Settings > Labs and enable Multiple Inboxes. When you relaunch Gmail you will see a
new tab in Settings called Multiple Inboxes and there you can define up to 5 custom inboxes.

For instance, you can keep a list of all Starred messages or Important messages or both as a
new inbox.

5. Preview Pane
If you love Outlook then you will love the Preview Pane labs feature. When you enable it, you
can read all your messages in a new preview pane so that you dont have to open each message to
read its content.

Its more effective when you have a large screen as otherwise it will reduce the available reading
space.

Go to Settings > Labs and enable Preview Pane. You will see a new button in Gmail to change
the layout of your inbox. It allows you to split the inbox horizontally or vertically.

6. Personal Level Indicators

Want to identify messages that are sent only to you? Its possible with Personal level indicators.
Go to Settings > General and you can check Show indicators by scrolling down to Personal
level indicators section.

Gmail will then display an arrow for all messages sent to your email address (except newsletters).
And it will show a double arrow if you are the only recipient of the message.
7. Mark As Read Button

If you are tired of clicking the Mark as read/unread action from the More menu then you will
love this. Go to Settings > Labs and enable Mark as Read Button.

You will see a new Mark as read button in your inbox and now you can mark your messages as
read in one-click.

8. Drag & Drop Messages

You can drag and drop messages or labels in Gmail. For instance, if you drag a message from your
inbox and drop to Starred, Gmail applies a star to that message and is then archived to All Mail.

Or, you can drag the label Example and drop onto a message so that its applied to that message.

9. Quick Links

Quick Links adds a new widget in your inbox that gives one-click access to any Gmail URL. Go
to Settings > Labs and enable Quick Links.

It adds a new box to the left sidebar and you can add any bookmarkable URL in Gmail as a
Quick Link. For instance, you can add a specific message, or an advanced search result, or a
label.

10. Google Calendar Gadget


Want to access Google Calendar right inside your Gmail inbox? Go to Settings > Labs and enable
Google Calendar Gadget. It will create a new widget in your inbox (see above screenshot) that
shows the upcoming events, birthdays, holidays, etc. from your Google Calendar.

11. Default Reply All

Do you forget to select the Reply to all option when there are multiple recipients for a message?
If so, you can go to Settings > General and scroll down to Default reply behavior section to
enable Reply all so that the Reply to all option is automatically selected when you try to reply
to a message with multiple recipients (of course, you can select Reply manually if you dont
want to reply all).

12. Auto Advance

Auto-advance is a labs feature that automatically shows the next conversation (instead of going
back to inbox) when you archive, delete, or mute a conversation.

Go to Settings > Labs and enable Auto-advance. You can then define the action by going to
Settings > General where you will see a new option called Auto-advance.

13. Show More Conversations & Contacts Per Page

If you are getting a lot of emails a day then you might want to view more conversations per page.
You can go to Settings > General and change the number of conversations and contacts shown per
page. You can view up to 100 conversations and 250 contacts per page.

14. Turn Off Web Clips


You can disable the Web Clips above the inbox by going to Settings > Web Clips and
unchecking the Show my web clips above the Inbox option.

15. Turn Off Conversation View

Like the traditional way of viewing messages individually (instead of grouping)? If so, you can go
to Settings > General and scroll down to Conversation View section to turn if off.

16. Select All Conversations In A Label

Want to clear all messages under a label/page? Just select the checkbox at the top and it will select
all the messages on that page. And you can even select the entire conversations on that page by
clicking on the special link above the message list.

17. See Oldest Email

You can go the Oldest messages in one-click by clicking the pagination menu. But its not
perfect as it works only on default and user created label pages like Inbox, All Mail, Starred,
etc. and on your custom label pages and not on search result pages.

18. HTML Signature


You can add signatures at the end of all outgoing mails by going to Settings > General and
scrolling down to Signature section. Its not possible to add HTML codes in your signature but
you can use the available formatting tools to create a signature with images, links, bullets, etc.

Or, you can copy-paste HTML content directly in the Gmail Signature area so that its appended at
the end of all outgoing messages.

19. IMAP Folder Size Limits

If you have a ton of messages in your Gmail then your email clients can take a lot of time to sync.
The good thing is if you are using IMAP to access Gmail from your email clients then you can
limit the number of messages in an IMAP folder.

You can go to Settings > Forwarding and POP/IMAP and scroll down to IMAP Access section to
set the folder size limits. For instance, you can set the maximum number of messages to 1,000 or
even 10,000.

Wait, you can also disable syncing of specific labels completely by going to Settings > Labels and
unchecking Show in IMAP option for the target label(s).

20. Desktop Notifications

If your Gmail inbox tab is always open then you might like Desktop Notifications. You can go
to Settings > General and scroll down to Desktop Notifications section to turn it on.

When you enable it, you will receive a notification when there is a new message but note that
Gmail must open in your browser for the desktop notifications to appear.

21. Gmail HTML Version

If your internet connectivity is poor or when Gmail is down you should be able to access the
Gmail HTML version. You can go to https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/h/ to access the HTML
version of Gmail.
Decoding Your Gmail Address
Do you know your single Gmail email address means unlimited possibilities? Yes, it can do a lot
more things than what you have imagined.

22. @Gmail.com Or @GoogleMail.com: You Have Both

Until 2010, Googles email service was known as Google Mail (and not Gmail) in the U.K. And
the associated email domain was @googlemail.com (and not @gmail.com). So, when you register
your example@gmail.com it becomes unavailable in @googlemail.com as well.

And the result? We get two email domains. For instance, if my email address is
maheshone@gmail.com then all mails sent to maheshone@googlemail.com also goes to the same
inbox.

23. Dots In Your Email Address Doesnt Matter

Lets say my registered Gmail address is maheshone@gmail.com.

Since Gmail doesnt recognize dots as characters within usernames, you can add or remove the
dots from a Gmail address without changing the actual destination address; they will all go to your
inbox, and only yours.

In other words:

maheshone@gmail.com = m.a.h.e.s.h.o.n.e@gmail.com

maheshone@gmail.com = mahesh.one@gmail.com

maheshone@gmail.com = m.aheshone@gmail.com

Its all the same!

As you can see all the above addresses belong to the same person. You can even login to your
account using any of those addresses.

Thats not all!

maheshone@gmail.com = maheshone@googlemail.com

maheshone@gmail.com = mahesh.one@googlemail.com

24. Plus Addressing

Your single Gmail address = infinite email addresses. Yes, thats right!

Append a plus (+) sign and any combination of words or numbers after your email address. For
example, I can use the address maheshone+twitter@gmail.com to sign up for Twitter or use
maheshone+facebook@gmail.com to sign up for Facebook.
In other words, you have unlimited email addresses and it works like magic when you use it with
filters. The only problem is some websites refuse to accept email addresses with a + sign in it
as they dont recognize it. Google should have replaced it with an underscore.

25. Whos Spamming You

You can find out who is spamming you if you make use of plus addressing. So, next time when
you sign up for a newsletter use your example+newslettername@gmail.com address. And you can
easily filter out such emails by creating a filter.

Searching Your Inbox


I personally believe that Search is the core feature of Gmail and its unbeatable. In fact, when it
was first launched back in 2004, Gmails philosophy was Search, dont sort. Thats why I prefer
Gmail web over third-party email apps and clients.

26. Gmail Advanced Search

Gmails Advanced Search is priceless as you can use it to find a specific message. It doesnt
matter if you have few thousand messages or even a million messages in your inbox. The search
just works every time!

27. Exclude Chats From Search Results


If you are seeing a lot of chat conversations in Gmails search result pages then you can exclude it
by checking the Dont include chats option from the advanced search options menu (see above
screenshot).

Organizing Your Emails


Its time to organize all your emails by understanding some of the core features of Gmail.

28. Everything Is A Label

Gmails approach to email folders was entirely different. Instead of folders they introduced
Labels and Archive but the problem is a good percentage of users do not use it, even today.

The best way to explain Archive and Label is to know the fact that Gmail has only one folder,
and its called All Mail, everything else are Labels.

All your incoming and outgoing messages resides in All Mail and with Labels you are only
tagging those messages. You can create regular labels as well as nested labels (also known as sub-
labels) to organize your inbox.

Tip: You can even change the color of your labels by clicking on the option next to each
custom labels name (not applicable for system labels like All Mail, Starred, Trash, etc.) on the left
sidebar.

29. Turn Off Important Folder/Label

With Priority Inbox, Gmail introduced a label called Important to automatically identify
important messages.

If you are like me then you probably dont want Gmail to decide whether a message is important
or not. So, you can go to Settings > Inbox and scroll down to Importance markers section to turn
off markers.

Now the problem is this only hide the importance markers from the inbox but it continues to
place messages in the Important folder/label.
So, if you want to disable it completely then you can create a simpler filter like this:

30. Stars & Super Stars Colored Stars & More Symbols

Gmail Stars can be considered as bookmarks or favorites and its different from importance
markers. Stars are manually set by us while importance markers are algorithmic and its set by
Gmail itself.

If you love Starring messages then you can supercharge it with more star designs. Go to
Settings > General and scroll down to Stars section to get more stars.
Its a good way to prioritize all your starred messages. For instance, you can use the default yellow
star for low priority messages and can use a red star for high priority messages.

31. Filters

Gmail filters are so powerful that you can use it to automatically organize your inbox.

You can create simple filters like:

Matches: from:(maheshone@gmail.com)
Do this: Mark as read

and advanced filters like:

Matches: from:(maheshone@gmail.com OR maheshone@googlemail.com OR


maheshone@example.com) to:(maheshone@gmail.com OR maheshone@googlemail.com
OR maheshone@example.com)
Do this: Apply label ME

.to organize incoming messages the way you want.

The best thing is Filters combined with Labels and Stars can do magic as it makes organizing
messages much, much, much effective.

32. Email Yourself

You can call me old school, but I still email files to myself as attachments and its my way of
archiving a version of a document and making it searchable (Thanks to Gmail search).

I know cloud storage services like OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, etc. could be a better
choice. But its not a good option for me as all the files in my cloud storage services are perfectly
organized and I do not want to fill my folders with backup copies.

33. Mute
Are you a part of a long conversation thats irrelevant? If so, you can mute that conversation so
that all future messages will skip the inbox and be archived automatically.

You can click the Mute button from the More menu. You can see a list of all muted
conversations by entering the following search query is:muted into the search box.

Attaching Files
Here are few things you didnt know about attachments in Gmail.

34. Send Attachments Up To 5 TB

You already know that the Gmail attachment size limit is just 25 MB. No, not anymore! Google
Drive is now tightly integrated with Gmail and you can now send files up to 5 TB in size
(depending upon the file type).

35. Insert Google Drive Files As Gmail Attachments

Its now possible to attach files from your Google Drive to Gmail. Just click the Google Drive
icon on the compose window and insert files using Google Drive. And the best thing about this
integration is that you can insert the attachment as a Google Drive link or as an attachment itself.

36. Download Gmail Attachments To Google Drive


Its also possible to download Gmail attachments directly to your Google Drive account without
downloading to your computer. Just hover your mouse over attachments and it will let you
download the attachment to your computer or Google Drive.

And if the message has multiple attachments then you can download all of them to your Google
Drive in one-click. Just click the Save all to Drive button.

37. Search Inside Gmail Attachments

It was not possible to search inside attachments as Gmail never indexed the content of
attachments. But now when you enter a search query, Gmail searches inside the attachments as
well.

If you want to search only messages with attachments then you can use the following syntax:

sample search query has:attachment

And, if you further want to restrict your searches to specific file types then use the following
syntax:

sample search query has:attachment filename:example.txt

sample search query has:attachment filename:pdf

38. Sort Gmail Messages By Size

It was not possible to sort messages in Gmail by size at first but now you can sort emails by size
and can even filter the search results by adding more search parameters like:
It can be really handy if you want to delete few messages to free up some space. For instance, you
can search for size:20m or larger:20m to find messages larger than 20 MB.

39. Drag & Drop Images As Attachments

You probably know that you can drag and drop images to a new compose window. But the
problem is when you drag and drop images, Gmail embeds the images into the message body
instead of attaching them as files.
If you want to drop images as attachments then simply drop the images under the Drop files
here area.

Increasing Your Productivity


Here are few tips to increase your email productivity.

40. Stop Deleting. Start Archiving.

Gmail is an experiment in a new kind of webmail, built on the idea that you should never have to
delete mail and you should always be able to find the message you want.

Thats so true because I never had to delete a single message. Ever. Instead of deleting messages
you can simply Archive them. When you click the Archive button it doesnt delete the
message from your inbox. Instead, it removes the message from the inbox and keep it inside All
Mail.

Its this feature that helps us to keep our inbox clean. For instance, everyday my goal is to have
an empty inbox. If there are messages in my inbox then it means I have work to do and if its
empty then it means Im done with email.

41. Send & Archive

If you find yourself archiving a message immediately after replying to it then the Send and
Archive button is only for you. Go to Settings > General and scroll down to Send and Archive
section to activate it.

42. Undo Sending

Do you want to stop messages from being sent for few seconds after hitting the Send button?
Yes, its possible too!

Go to Settings > Labs and enable Undo Send. It gives you up to 30 seconds to undo the last sent
mail. You can adjust the cancellation period from Settings > General.

43. Use Right-Click Menu


Gmail updated the right-click menu recently and now you can archive, delete, or mark a message
as read/unread in one-click.

44. Canned Responses

Canned Responses is perhaps one of the most underrated Gmail labs feature. It lets you save
email templates so that you dont have to compose the same message over and over.

Go to Settings > Labs and enable Canned Responses. Now you can save a message as a
template (and can even overwrite it) and can insert it into a new compose window in one-click.

The good thing is you can automatically send canned responses by creating filters. Yes, it
works too!

45. Vacation Responder


If you want to send an auto response when you are on a vacation then you can turn on Vacation
Responder. Go to Settings > General and scroll down to Vacation responder section to turn it
on.

Your auto response email is sent only once unless the same person contact you again after four
days. Also, if you edited your auto response message then Gmail will send the new edited
response when the same person emails you again.

46. Quote Selected Text

Do you want to quote only the selected text (instead of the whole content) when you reply to a
message? Yes, its possible with the Quote selected text labs feature. Go to Settings > Labs and
enable Quote Selected Text.

So, next time when you want to quote a specific text you can highlight it using your mouse and
click the Reply button. If you do not want to highlight a specific text, simply click the Reply
button without selecting a text portion.

47. Keyboard Shortcuts

Keyboard shortcuts can save you a lot of time by keeping your hands off the mouse as much as
possible. You can go to Settings > General and turn on/off the Keyboard Shortcuts.

Also, if you are not comfortable with the default keyboard shortcuts then you can customize it by
activating the Custom Keyboard Shortcuts labs feature.

Managing All Your Accounts


Do you know you can manage all your email accounts with Gmail? Yes, Gmail can act as your
email hub!

48. Email Forwarding


Do you want to forward all your incoming mails to another email address? You can go to Settings
> Forwarding and POP/IMAP and add a forwarding address by clicking on the Add a
forwarding address button.

The best thing is you can even create a filter to forward only emails that matches a specific
criteria.

49. Add More POP3 Accounts


One of the key feature of Gmail is its ability to fetch messages from your other email accounts
such as Outlook.com, Yahoo Mail, or any other POP3 email accounts.

Go to Settings > Accounts and Import and scroll down to Check mail from other accounts (using
POP3) section to add up to 5 POP3 accounts.

50. Gmail SMTP Lets You Send Emails From Your Other Accounts

When Gmail introduced Mail Fetcher to fetch messages from other POP3 accounts it also
became possible to send messages from those accounts.

The problem was it used to show an annoying On behalf of message to the recipient which
was a privacy concern and it lacked professionalism.

For example, if the email was sent from example@hotmail.com then it will show to the recipient
as From example@gmail.com on behalf of example@hotmail.com.

Later in 2009, Gmail allowed users to send mails through the SMTP server of your newly added
POP3 account. And now its the standard way of adding a new email account to your Gmail.

Go to Settings > Accounts and Import and scroll down to Send mail as section and click Add
another email address you own (see above screenshot).

51. Use Gmail As An Your Email Hub

One of the most admired internet productivity tool is Google Apps but Google discontinued
its free edition so that you have to purchase Google Apps for Business (costs $50 per user per
year) to manage your business email accounts. It also means that even if you need just one
mailbox you still have to pay $50 a year.

The good thing is you can use your personal Gmail account as your email server thats to
create a custom outgoing email address like you@example.com. Follow tip #49 and #50 to
configure all your business email accounts or go here for a step-by-step tutorial.

Do you have multiple Gmail accounts? If so, you do not have to logout from the current session to
login to another account. Just click your profile picture at the top right corner and click the Add
account button to login to another Gmail account (without logging out from the existing account).

The Gmail inbox URLs for your accounts will look like:

https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox

https://mail.google.com/mail/u/1/#inbox

https://mail.google.com/mail/u/2/#inbox
53. Import Mail And Contacts

Want to import all your messages and contacts from your other email accounts like Yahoo Mail,
Outlook.com, AOL, or any other POP3 account to Gmail? Yes, you can transfer your old emails
and contacts to Gmail with its Import feature.

Go to Settings > Accounts and Import and click the Import mail and contacts option to get
started.

Securing Your Gmail Account


Here are some of the less known security features about your Google account.

54. Recent Activity

With Gmail, you can review your recent account activity at the click of a button and see who else
is using your Gmail account. Just click Details at the bottom right corner of your inbox and it
will show information (like access type, IP address, date and time) about the recent account
activity and any concurrent activity.

55. Sign Out Remotely

The Recent activity page also lets you Sign out all other web sessions (see above screenshot).
It means that if you havent logged out from a public computer then you can do it remotely.

56. List Of Active Devices


Want to see a list of devices that accessed your Google account? Just go to Devices & activity to
see a list of devices (with details like device model, browsers, location, etc) that have been active
on your account in the last 28 days, or are currently signed in. The good thing is you can even
remove account access remotely.

57. Account Permissions


if you want to see a list of devices, apps, and websites that have access to your Google account
(with authorization date) then go to Account Permissions. Of course, you can Revoke access if
you do not trust an app or a website.

58. Inactive Account Manager


Do you know you have to login to your Gmail account at least once every 9 months or
Google may suspend your account forever.

So, its a good idea to share the account with a trusted friend or you might want to delete your
account completely. You can use Googles Inactive Account Manager to decide what happens
to your data when you stop using your Google account.

59. Delegate Access To Your Account

You can delegate access to your Gmail to another Google account holder so that he/she will be
able to sign in to your account to read, delete and send mail on your behalf. They will not be able
to change your account settings or your password.

Go to Settings > Accounts and Import and scroll down to Grant access to your account to add
another account.

60. Download All Your Mails


Yes, you can download all your emails with Google Takeout. Its provided in the MBOX format
and is supported by Microsoft Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird, Apple Mail, etc.

You can download your entire inbox as a single file or can selectively download messages by
choosing specific labels.

61. Enable 2-Step Verification

Two step verification adds an extra layer of security to your Gmail account by requiring you to
have access to your phone as well as your username and password when you sign in.

It means that if someone steals or guesses your password, the potential hijacker wont be able to
sign in your account as they dont have access to your phone.

62. Know Your Gmail Account Information

If your Gmail account is hacked (or if you are unable to recover it using the password reset form)
then the only way to regain access to your account is by verifying your identity.
That is, Google will ask you few questions about your Gmail account to make sure that you are the
true owner. So, its important to know those details and note down in your personal diary.

Ideally you should know the following details about your Gmail account:

Month and year of Google account creation.

Answer to your security question.

Email addresses of up to 5 frequently emailed contacts.

Name of up to 4 Gmail labels.

First account recovery email address that you remember.
