Highlights:
- Gmail finally gets the most important Select All feature after years.
- Google is widely rolling out the Select All option within Gmail for Android.
- Due to these limitations, Gmail’s new Select All button will only allow users to by-default select up to 50 emails at once.
No doubt, Google always focuses on improving all its services and introduces certain enhancements in order to offer users a convenient and better user interface, while Gmail is no different. That’s where Gmail stands at the top in being the most used email Android app across the world, but it certainly lacks a most important feature, which is disappointing. In contrast, that’s changed entirely, as Gmail has finally received the Select All option.
Being the most widely used email service, Gmail hasn’t had the most crucial Select All button for years, which allows users to manually choose each of their email messages in order to delete, archive, or organize, resulting in annoyance and frustration at times. Meanwhile, it’s great that Google has finally added a Select All button within the Gmail app. On the flip side, some of the users have spotted the new update within the Gmail app 2023.11.12.586837719 and 2023.11.26.586591930 versions, respectively, which indirectly indicates that the feature will be rolling out widely.
At the same time, Select All is an important feature, as users had to manually select each of their emails one-by-one in order to delete or archive them. Whereas, the process is pretty simple:
- On your Gmail app, simply long-press on any single email.
- The newly-added Select All option will appear in the top left corner.
- Tap on the Select All option.
- Then, select the delete icon.
Although the Select All feature is very important and can save a lot of time, which we used to spend earlier selecting each email message separately, Select All comes with a small twist, which allows you to by-default select up to 50 emails at once. However, if you select the Select All option and if the list of your emails is very long, you need to scroll down after the 50th email, and you will notice the other emails in the list that aren’t selected. While, before tapping on the Select All option, you scroll down the email message list, you can seamlessly select an entire batch regardless of how many emails are within the list.
Furthermore, the recent addition of the Select All feature is a significant change but can result in several game-changing capabilities in the coming future. Google has always tried to offer its users the best possible functionalities and user-friendly experience.
