How to Clean Your Gmail Inbox in Minutes

Why Clean Your Inbox?
A cluttered inbox makes important emails difficult to find. Bulk deletion saves time, reduces stress and frees up storage.
Use the Select All Option
Open Gmail on your desktop and tick the top-left checkbox. Choose ‘Select all conversations’ and click the Bin icon.
Delete Emails by Category
Open Social or Promotions to find unwanted messages. Select all emails and click Delete to clear them together.
Use Search Filters
Search using older than:1y or larger:10M to find emails. Select matching results and delete them to free up space.
Clean Gmail on Mobile
Long-press an email to activate multi-select mode. Select additional messages and tap the Delete icon.
Restore Deleted Emails
Gmail keeps deleted messages in the Bin for 30 days. Open Bin and select ‘Restore’ to recover important emails.
