Gmail: the Android application finally allows you to cancel sending an email, here's how

The Gmail application for Android now allows you to cancel sending an email. This feature has been around for a long time on the web version, Google is finally catching up. The operation is similar in that the user has a few seconds to press “cancel”, the latest version of Gmail is required to have it.


According to Android Authority, the Gmail app on Android has a new feature allowing you to cancel sending an email for a few seconds after pressing send. This new feature is identical to the one already found on a desktop computer with the web version of Gmail. A black banner appears on the screen, on the left it is marked “Sending…” and on the right “Cancel”, all you have to do is press it so that the e-mail is not sent to its recipient.
