[@aperson1181]

What if you are trying to delete older emails from a specific sender?

[@bobbichandler6123]

I'm not a techy person at all so I've never deleted my emails from gmail in the few years I've had this phone. I know once I almost figured it out but something happened so I wasn't able to do it and I did see months ago that I have over 100,000 emails. Can you tell me exactly where I type the info in you just gave us here? Thanks so much!!

[@thelove-star3755]

I finally found the way how to delete it Thank you!👌🙏

[@Online-Tech-Tips]

No problem 👍

[@kmsideout]

There are no arrows to select?

[@IH1940HAY]

Do do not see the deleting options on my Google email screen. How do I see them?

[@sleepovershelter]

What about the email account? That causes the stress in the first place

[@jake30966]

I got new phone , note 10 plus , and now when I delete an email in Gmail I don't get the the box saying delete this conversation Cancel OK , how do I get that back ?

[@Schmidteren]

"Select all conversations that match this search" does not pop up when you use the choose non star marked ones. :S Sucks I also have to delete all the important ones. :(

[@richierabang6475]

thanks for the info

[@Online-Tech-Tips]

Any time

[@kmsideout]

Typing before or after negates all searches. Nothing comes up.

[@lowerastral1963]

No, no, no. I have a family member who has several email addresses, and most of them apparently, are old. So, when I email her, I have no idea which address is her most current one, and, when I send her an email, I send it to ALL of her email addresses, which irritates her. So, she told me to get rid of this address, this address, and THIS address and to only use THIS address. So, my question is how do I delete email addresses that no one uses anymore and that I should NOT be using? Thank you.

[@KathleenFoster-jj8qo]

still only deletes one page of 20 at a time. Doesn't select the 30,000 that are in there. I did "before: 2021/01/01!

[@flax72l.a13]

Excuse me ¿do you know how am i supposed to delete this old email message and replace it with the new e-mail message how? Because i tried to delete it and replace it with the new one but i can't ¿can you help me to solve this problematic issue please? I just tried my best but ¡¡it doesn't even worked!! ¿¡Okay!?.

[@kmsideout]

It just undies the search. Why is this hard?

[@c.o.sj4]

EVERYTIME I SEND STUFF TAH MY NEW GMAIL IT KEEPS SENDING TAH MY OLD EMAIL ACCOUNT 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

[@muuho_o8748]

valeuu

[@kmsideout]

If it was that easy I wouldn’t need help. There are no options to delete or move emails after searching except one at a time.

[@iammichaelhughes]

Doesn't work for me. Will only delete 10K emails at a time.👎

[@kmsideout]

Ugh. I wish you lead with Apple products won’t allow mass deletes.

[@ryang6931]

Gmail emails

[@sammyveach8051]

I clicked the dislike tab because like most youtube tech or channels when they explain how to do something or a step the video maker thinks everyone knows every little fine detail about the subject matter. As is in this video he takes for granite that everyone already knows how to get to the window that he's describing which in this case for me it left me wondering.

[@SydneyButler]

We're trying to balance video length and detail, and we don't always get it right! Thanks for the feedback!
PS
It's "taken for granted," not "taken for granite".

[@lynshlomit]

Don't understand you

[@sarinaeliyakim845]

you talk too much without any real demonstration
