- Sort a week of unread email into reply, money and clutter with GeminiEvidence: Article or interviewBeginner-friendly
Android Police's Akshay Bhalla, facing thousands of unread emails, set up a Gemini scheduled action that summarizes the last seven days of unread Gmail into three groups: threads needing his reply, financial emails like invoices and receipts, and low-priority newsletters and alerts. He says the near-daily report puts the few emails needing a reply front and center; with a second prompt to purge clutter, he says he cleaned 200 unread threads in an hour.

- Clean up a Gmail inbox with Gemini's search prompts (hit or miss)Evidence: Article or interviewPartial
Tom's Guide's John Brandon found Gemini in Gmail accurate for composing emails and summarizing threads, but its inbox search and clean-up prompts were unreliable: it mostly searched recent mail, listed newsletters as his most-discussed topics, refused to find the largest attachments, and found only four emails with shipping labels out of several dozen. 'Show me all emails with an attachment from May 2024' did work, and he says clean-up worked about 25% of the time.

He says Gemini in Gmail saves him about 5 hours a week.
