GMAIL - Days to Sync

[gstonier]

Hi. Sorry if this question has been answered elsewhere. I have been searching around and haven't found the exact answer to my question.

I have 2 Android devices and GMail acts the same on both, so I assume this to be an App thing.

GMail allows the user to select "Days to Sync" on Android devices, to which I have the setting very low as I prefer to keep my mail on the mobile devices quite clean. However, when I do sync, even if I have told it to only sync 2 or 3 days, I end up getting mail, or at least headers from a lot longer. Is there anyway to tell GMail that if I am asking it to sync only the last three days, that is all I want it to display?

Thanks

Firstly, welcome to the forums, we are glad to have you!

And the days to sync is the only way to get this to work, as it should sync the amount of days you want it to...

You could be more organizational with your Gmail account and create labels for things and set colors for certain emails that come in and have them automatically go into certain labels?

This could help with the not wanting to have all the mail cluttering your inbox...

Hope this helps
