Let's find out about some of the features of Gmail-

Using Gmail without the Internet

Users can use Gmail without the Internet if they want. However, to get this facility, "offline access mode" will need to be enabled. Users can also search and respond to Gmail in this mode. Note that this feature only works with Google Chrome.

To enable "offline access mode", you must first log in to Gmail. Then click on the “Settings” icon and click on “See All Settings”. Then click on “Offline” at the top and turn it on.

Sometimes, Gmail has trouble finding the desired content. However, this problem has the “Advanced Search” feature. After entering the email address in the Gmail search box, various search filters will appear. There, you can easily search for emails using attachments, dates, etc.

However, if the user wants, they can add their own options here. For example, they can swipe to delete emails, mark them as read or unread.

For this, by entering the app's settings and going to the "Email Swipe Actions" option from the General Settings option, you will find the "Right Swipe" and "Left Swipe" options. To use the preferred option, you just need to select "Change"
