You can now easily filter search results in Gmail on Android

To search faster, you can narrow results by selecting search filters below the search box, like from a colleague's name, or a specific timeframe.

Gmail on Android has added the ability for users to quickly and easily filter email and search results, letting them find the one specific email or information they are looking for. Search filters can be used independently or post-search.

To search faster, you can narrow results by selecting search filters below the search box, like from a colleague's name, or a specific timeframe. When searching for emails by sender, you can choose from a list of suggested senders or search for emails from multiple senders.

There is no admin control or end-user setting for this feature. It is rolling out to both Rapid Release and Scheduled Release domains and the rollout is expected to be completed by the end of October 2021.

The ability to use search filters in Gmail on Android is available to all Google Workspace customers, as well as G Suite Basic and Business customers.
