    Scott I'm upset with you!😓 This should have been your very first tutorial re Gmail! 😱. I never knew this existed. To think that I've wasted so much time in responding to emails. THANKS! You made my Christmas.

    I needed this! It will save me up to at least 30 seconds on most of my replies [up to 20 a day]. I had canned replies in drafts & I would copy/ paste. Thanks!

    This is great! If I have a template, but still want to personalize it a little, can it be edited in each case? Having most of the info that I want to send "canned" would be an enormous help, but I would still like to individualize the "canned" letter a bit. Possible?

      Unfortunately, I don't believe that this carries over to mobile. However, there are other tools such as CloudHQ which will allow you to do this. See the following article: blog.cloudhq.net/mobile-gmail-templates/

    I would like to set an auto response from the particular email alias using the template.

    The drawback to templates is that as you add more and more they become unruly and there's not a good way to organize them. I've started using ClipClip which is the same idea only it's much easier to organize your templates.

      Not with the Gmail templates. But you can do this with text expanders such as Text Blaze. See this video for more details: th-cam.com/video/2Qil1bx_Euw/w-d-xo.html
