How to recover deleted mail from gmail app
The frustration of accidentally deleting an important email! Don't worry, I'm here to help you recover deleted emails from the Gmail app. Here are the steps:
Method 1: Check the "Trash" folder
- Open the Gmail app on your device.
- Tap the "More" menu (three vertical dots) and select "Trash".
- Check if the deleted email is still in the Trash folder. If it is, you can restore it by tapping the "Restore" button next to the email.
- If the email is no longer in the Trash folder, proceed to the next method.
Method 2: Use Gmail's "Undo Send" feature
- If you have enabled the "Undo Send" feature in your Gmail settings, you can use it to recover deleted emails.
- Go to the Gmail app's settings (tap the gear icon).
- Scroll down to the "General" tab.
- Look for the "Undo Send" option and toggle it on.
- If you've enabled "Undo Send", you'll see a "Undo" button next to the "Send" button when you delete an email.
- If you've deleted an email and want to recover it, tap the "Undo" button within a few seconds of deletion.
Method 3: Use Gmail's "Bin" feature
- Open the Gmail app and go to the "Bin" folder (it's usually located in the "More" menu).
- Check if the deleted email is still in the Bin folder. If it is, you can restore it by tapping the "Restore" button next to the email.
- If the email is no longer in the Bin folder, proceed to the next method.
Method 4: Use a third-party email recovery tool
- There are several third-party email recovery tools available that can help you recover deleted emails from the Gmail app.
- Some popular options include:
- Email Recovery (Android)
- Recover Email (iOS)
- Gmail Recovery (Android)
- Follow the instructions provided by the tool to recover your deleted email.
Important notes:
- Gmail's "Trash" and "Bin" folders only store deleted emails for a limited time (usually 30 days).
- If you've deleted an email and it's no longer in the Trash or Bin folder, it may be permanently deleted and unrecoverable.
- Enabling "Undo Send" can help you recover deleted emails, but it's only available for a short period after sending or deleting an email.
I hope these methods help you recover your deleted email from the Gmail app!
