Gmail has 1.8 billion users.

However, 97% don’t use it effectively.

Here are 10 Gmail hacks you should know:

Regret sending that email? You can fix it in 30 seconds. Here’s what to do:

Click the settings icon (top right).

Go to Settings > General.

Turn on 'undo send'.

Select 30 seconds. No more email errors!

Remove promotional emails.

Enter "unsubscribe" in the Gmail search bar.

Choose all emails marked with the unsubscribe tag.

Click the delete button to delete them all.

3. Send a confidential email.

Select ‘Schedule Send.’

Choose your desired date and time.

Snooze an email. If you want to postpone an email, set a reminder.

Tap the clock icon on the right.

It will come back to your inbox on that date.

Use Labels Labels can organize your emails well.

You can create custom labels for emails like “Work,” “Personal,” or “Travel.”
