    Bless. I was so frustrated for the last 10 minutes. I tapped desktop while on the site and it would not pull up the page like this. This truly helped ❤

    Thanks so much for this. But why the hell doesn't the app version of Gmail has this function 🤷🏻‍♂️ ?

    This is a good tip for people who don't have a computer and just a phone, which is probably a lot of people.

    Solid guide. May require the following additional steps (Android 13 on Pixel 6 Pro): As others have noted, once Gmail opens in desktop mode, you have to scroll to the bottom and click on Desktop (yes, AGAIN!) This will bring up yet another dialogue asking you if you REALLY want to use the HTML or "old" version. Confirm, and you should be on a page relatively analogous to what is shown in this video. In my case, I had an "Edit labels" link beneath my folders on the left side of the screen instead of a "+" icon above. Clicking this link should take you to the Labels tab in Settings (also able to be accessed by clicking on Settings on the upper right of the main inbox page and then clicking on the Labels tab), where you can create new folders and rename and remove old ones to your heart's content. Hope this helped.

    Thanks, I would have never known how to fix my labels or folders. It's so confusing little so little information out there even from Google and Gmail. But I'll give it a try through the chrome. Thank you very much.

    I don't know why Gmail just doesn't implement a label editing or adding feature on the app considering so many people use Gmail

  • @AngelforCreator
    @AngelforCreator 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Unfortunately although i've been able to create a couple of labels, it does not show anywhere on my gmail when i open it, even though i know they exist. They come under labels not categories which is needed on the app.

    No creation of folders or labels on Motorola g play 2021. Act the same as mobile Gmail app.

    It works only for the top 7 folders. After that I am having trouble 😢.
    Update: I just typed the first letter and find that folder perfectly 👍

    there is no three dots at the top. i have gone through 4 different instruct videos and every one is out dated because the GDm apps change all the time and you have to solve a GDm puzzle again

    So what are you going to do in January 2024 when they stop supporting browser Gmail..?

  • @siyad970
    @siyad970 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Doesnt work. Followed instructions to the letter. Once your in you're gmail account it doesn't give you the + sign next to label.
