#SCHEDULE EMAIL TO SEND LATER GMAIL INBOX ANDROID#
There's really no catch and nothing to it at all: When you want to move an email to the tippity top of your ippity inbox, just click the box next to it and then click the snooze icon (the circular clock) at the top of the screen, on a computer - or tap the icon to its left, then tap the three-dot menu icon and select "Snooze" from the Android app.
And it works in pretty much any Gmail inbox style and arrangement you've got. This trick works on both the Gmail desktop website and the Gmail Android app. That's an especially helpful one-two punch in the mornings or on the weekends, when my inbox tends to resemble the untamed jungle of my current pandemic beard and it becomes damn-near impossible to figure out what to focus on first. I use it religiously - first, for sending away any messages I'm not gonna deal with that same day (so they'll be out of my hair and then appear anew at a date and time when I will be ready to wrangle 'em) and second, for moving my highest priority emails to the top of my inbox so the most important stuff always catches my eye first. In fact, you know what? I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that snoozing might be the most powerful tool Gmail's got for keeping your inbox organized and in a sensible order. Rather, I'm talking about tapping into Gmail's built-in snoozing function, which has been a native part of the service for nearly two years now, and just using it in a slightly unusual way. Now, hang on: I'm not suggesting you take a short siesta whilst scanning your Very Important Business Correspondence (though I wouldn't necessarily advise against that, either, if we're being fully honest). So prepare yourself for enlightenment: The secret to reordering messages in Gmail is - drumroll, please - snoozing. Once you do, though, you'll smack yourself uponst the melon as you realize how painfully simple it is and how long you've gone without noticing. It just requires a little creative thinking, and you'd never know it was possible unless you happened to stumble onto the trick. Well, I'm here to tell you there is a way to do exactly that. I mean, think about it: How handy would it be to have the power to drag and drop emails within the Gmail inbox and place 'em in whatever order you want? For me, it's less of an exercise in busywork and more of a way to give myself a logical and easy-to-follow path for tackling messages - like in the mornings, for instance, when I try to answer my highest priority emails first and then often end up leaving the less pressing dispatches for a little later in the day. There is, however, one exception - and that's the occasional reordering of the messages in front of you.
It's mostly just the fact that devoting your energy to organizing your email is almost always a wasted effort. It's not entirely a matter of laziness, either (though, um, maybe a little).
Mind you, I lean on a carefully crafted system of Gmail filters and labels to organize messages for me - doing everything from controlling which types of missives alert me to automatically filing certain types of emails into specific tabs I've repurposed.īut when it comes to actual ongoing organization - the sort of thing that, y'know, requires time and energy every forkin' day - I'm a firm believer in the notion that less is more. I try my darndest not to spend too much time organizing my email on a daily basis.
