Amidst the sea of emails vying for your attention, some messages stand out as particularly important or require immediate action.
Gmail
, Google's popular email platform, provides a simple yet effective solution for this challenge: the "Star" feature. By strategically marking certain emails with a star, you can create a
personalised system
for prioritising and organising your messages.
Starring important emails in Gmail is a great way to quickly and easily keep track of them later. Here are the steps on how to do it:
On your computer:
- Open Gmail and navigate to your inbox.
- Find the email you want to star.
- Click the empty star icon next to the message.
- (Optional) If you have multiple star options, keep clicking the star icon until you see the one you want to use.
On your Android device:
- Launch the Gmail app on your Android phone or tablet.
- Find the email you want to star.
- Tap the empty star icon next to the message or subject.
On your iPhone or iPad:
- Open the Gmail app on your iPhone or iPad.
- Swipe right on the email you want to star.
- Tap the star icon that appears.
Important tips to keep in mind:
- You can also star an email while you're reading it. Click or tap the "More" menu and then select "Add Star."
- You can view all of your starred emails by clicking on the "Starred" label in the left-hand pane of your Gmail inbox.
- You can add stars to multiple emails at once by selecting them and then clicking or tapping the star icon.
- You can even customise what happens when you star an email. In the Settings menu, you can choose to have starred emails automatically move to a specific label or folder.
