use these little known codes

A big part of Google’s success is that the company offers you a very complete online service that it gives you access to and allows you to use various applications and platforms that serve us in our daily lives. Gmail, Drive, Google Photos are just a few of the most popular ones, but the list is much longer.

And the best part, besides the fact that their apps are pretty good, is that Google’s ecosystem services are free, at least until you reach your 15GB of free storage.and from now on your Google account starts causing problems.

This is because you have run out of space, which means you will no longer receive emails. Although the simplest and most effective solution is about purchasing additional storage space and Google One plans, If you don’t want to pay, there are some steps you can take to free up space for free.

In the case of Gmail, as we already said, lack of space leads to let’s stop receiving emailstherefore this email address becomes useless. Luckily, we can free up space, and the most effective way is to delete old emails.

Since deleting every email that is useless to us one by one is a very difficult task, Gmail offers a number of codes that will make this task much faster and easier, and in this article we will show you what they are.

Gmail codes to free up space

All you have to do is go to the Gmail search engine (bar at the top of the page) and type:

• Size: 3m With this code you will receive all emails that are more than three megabytes in size and therefore take up a lot of space.
• Older_Than: 1 year You will be shown those that are older than one year, you can expand your search by changing the number in front of Y.
• from:(contact name) All emails from a specific contact will be displayed. For example, if you type from:netflix, all emails sent to you by the company will appear.

Once this is done, all you have to do is select all the emails that you have selected and that you no longer want to keep for reasons that take up too much space, are too old or are spam, advertising or irrelevant information and delete them all so that free up some space and your Gmail will work fine again.
