All mails are read but still shows 1 gmail

A common issue!

If all your emails are marked as "read" but you still see a Gmail notification saying you have 1 unread email, there are a few possible reasons for this:

  1. Unread emails in a specific label or folder: Check if you have any emails in a specific label or folder that are marked as "unread". Sometimes, Gmail can get stuck on a specific label or folder and not update the overall unread count.
  2. Emails with attachments: If you have emails with attachments, they might be marked as "read" but still show as unread in your notification count. This is because Gmail considers emails with attachments as "unread" until you open the attachment.
  3. Emails with special characters or formatting: Some emails with special characters or formatting might be causing the issue. Try searching for emails with these characters or formatting and mark them as "read" to see if it resolves the issue.
  4. Gmail's algorithm: Gmail's algorithm might be temporarily stuck on a specific email or set of emails, causing the notification count to remain stuck. Try restarting your browser or device to see if it resolves the issue.
  5. Third-party extensions or plugins: If you're using any third-party extensions or plugins, they might be interfering with Gmail's notification count. Try disabling them temporarily to see if it resolves the issue.
  6. Gmail's notification settings: Check your Gmail notification settings to ensure that you're not set to receive notifications for a specific label or folder that's causing the issue.

To resolve the issue, you can try the following:

  1. Log out and log back into your Gmail account.
  2. Check your Gmail settings and ensure that you're not set to receive notifications for a specific label or folder.
  3. Try searching for emails with special characters or formatting and mark them as "read".
  4. Restart your browser or device.
  5. Disable any third-party extensions or plugins temporarily.

If none of these solutions work, you can try reaching out to Gmail support for further assistance.
