Google has been slowly improving its email application, known as Gmail. Among the functions, it has added is the ability to snooze emails. What is it for and how can you use it? Let us show you how to do it in this article.
What is snooze for in Gmail?
Snooze is a feature that lets you set a date and time for any email you receive in your inbox. This way, you will receive a notification at the right time. This is a very useful feature in certain circumstances. For example, let's say you have received an email with tickets for a concert. Instead of keeping the message in the main inbox, you can snooze it until the right moment when you need to check it. Until then, it will remain hidden. When the time comes, Gmail will notify you again at the selected date and time as if you had received the email at that precise moment.
