<p>Even if the mobile version of Gmail may not be laden with all the features that the desktop version has, a whole lot of people rely on the mobile version for their daily e-mail needs. While I prefer being able to use the desktop version myself, I find myself using the mobile version more and more and have found a few nifty tricks to make it a bit easier. Here's a collection of five tips that power users of Gmail should find handy. AndroidPITSpecify your search</p><p>Typically, if you're a heavy Gmail user, you're receiving quite a few e-mails throughout the day. You may lose track of some, archive them and forget about them, or maybe just be trying to pull up a confirmation e-mail from months back. If so, you will most likely have to use the search function within Gmail. Thankfully, Google allows a long list of filter commands that you can use in your search. For example, you can search by a period specified, the location, the size of e-mail attachments, the recipients or senders, and so on. You can find an entire list of search operators compatible with Gmail on this Google page.An example of a query specifying messages older than two days old. / AndroidPITMore Finger Selection</p><p>With the latest update to the Gmail app, you no longer have checkboxes next to the e-mail in which you can click and then chose your corresponding action (archive, move, delete, etc). Instead, they've been replaced by a profile picture of the sender. In order to do the same selection, as before, you need to use a long press and it will bring up the same options as before. A little bit annoying, especially if you're looking to manipulate a bunch of different messages. However, you can also use your fingers to select multiple messages at once. In fact, if you're got extremely dexterous fingers, you could technically select up to four e-mail messages at once.Personalized Notifications</p><p>As with using your search parameters to narrow down messages in your e-mail account, you can also do corresponding labels to certain e-mail groups based on rules that you specify. However, if you're receiving e-mails multiple times during the day, you may be going through a notification overload. Well, you can manage which types of labels will result in you getting a notification or not, regardless of which inbox they go to first. Just head to Label Settings and you can just select the type of notification that you'd like associated which each label.Get those label notifications sorted out. / AndroidPITTrain Gmail to sort your mail</p><p><a href="http://www.androidpit.com/gmail-for-android-5-tips-for-power-users">Keep reading...</a></p>
