Swipe actions

In the message list, swipe a row to act on it without opening it. On mobile, with your finger. On desktop, with two fingers on the trackpad, left or right.

Short swipe, long swipe

Each side has two actions:

• a short swipe reveals both buttons of that side: the short action next to the message, the long one at the edge. Tap (or click) the one you want;
• a long swipe, all the way, triggers the long action right away.

Defaults

Gesture	Short	Long
Swipe right (left to right)	Snooze	Read / Unread
Swipe left (right to left)	Archive	Delete

Choose your actions

• On desktop: Settings → Swipe actions.
• On mobile: Settings → Swipe actions.

For each of the four slots (Left short, Left long, Right short, Right long), choose from: None, Read / Unread, Archive, Done (read + archived), Delete, Snooze, Set Aside, Pin / Unpin, Flag / Unflag, Move and Junk.

None removes the button. Without a long action, the full swipe is turned off on that side.

Restore default swipe actions brings back the original setup. Your choices are synced across all your devices.

Good to know: did something by mistake? Tap Undo in the notice that appears at the bottom of the screen.
