If you’ve ever sent an email and immediately regretted it, then Gmail has your back. Here’s how to use Gmail unsend email feature.
Emails have changed the way we officially communicate with each other, making letters a thing of the past. Emails have become so ingrained in our lives that the first thing many of us do in the morning is look at our inbox. Sometimes, we also send the wrong email, creating scary situation, especially if it was sent it to the boss. Regrettably, it happens too often for comfort.
However, a wrong email sent to the wrong person could potentially be a recipe for a disaster. But did you know that Gmail allows you to unsend an email in a limited-time window? Yes, you can actually unsend emails. In such cases, you can "Undo" the emails you've sent. You can even specify the time under which you can undo a sent email. Thankfully, Gmail itself provides a small alert every time to remind you.
Before using the unsend feature, you need to set it up to determine the period of time in which you can unsend it.

In the top right, click Settings and then click See all settings.
