Follow-up reminders tell you when an email still hasn’t been opened after a time you choose. They’re included in Pro.
Setting a reminder
- Write your email in Gmail.
- Open the OpenedYet menu in the compose window and choose when you’d like to be reminded — for example tomorrow, in three days or in a week.
- Send the email as usual.
What happens next
- If the email is opened before the reminder is due, the reminder is cancelled and you get an open alert instead.
- If it’s still unopened, you get a desktop notification with the subject and recipient, so you can follow up.
Changing or cancelling a reminder
Open the email in your dashboard to change the reminder time or remove it.
