JAKARTA Email messages often accumulate and make users overwhelmed to organize or throw away these messages. The reason is, Gmail does not support deleting messages at once.

This is often a problem because not everyone wants to arrange their emails one by one, either to be archived, deleted, or tagged for the other. Choosing email one by one is also a waste of time.

Reporting from 9to5Google, Google is now adding the Select All feature or Select All that can facilitate email selection. This additional feature will select a lot of emails at once so you no longer need to choose one by one.

The Select Menu All only appears when you select an email. This feature itself has been around for a long time, but can only be used when you open Gmail via the website.

Now, you can feel all the additional features in mobile devices. Unfortunately, this feature is only available for devices that support Android.

Although the claims make it easier, the Select All feature is not 100 percent helpful. The reason is, there is a number of emails that can be selected, which is only limited to 50 emails. Therefore, the Select All feature is not really easy.

This feature itself is said to have appeared in Gmail on Pixel and Samsung Galaxy by 9to5Google, but The Verge didn't see the change. 9to5Google adds that this launch is part of a server side change. In other words, you need to wait for this feature until it's really present.
