It may seem very simple and in fact even unnecessary to have to manage chat history in our account gmail However, it can be very helpful to be able to access conversations that we have had with our other contacts in days, weeks and even months ago and the reason can be more than one such as remembering some information about a person such as a telephone number or knowing that what we have said corresponds to what we think now, it can also help us to recover files such as photos, videos and documents but above all if we have a high activity in terms of conversations in the Gmail Chat Keeping the most important conversations well organized and those that are not, since deleting them or having them in a specific folder helps us to maintain a better organization of the Chat history.
The profits that we can get from this feature of Gmail are many, what we will see next is how to access and manage the Chat history and the functions it offers. To begin we log into our Gmail account and on the side of the main page we look for the link «Cat»It is in this link that we can see all the conversations we have had and that are shown by default from the most recent one, we can select any of the conversations and if it were the case, delete from the Hangout history.
Other options we have to manage our Chat history in Gmail is to move to the received folder, we can also assign labels to each conversation or to several at the same time, also mark as read or unread, add to the task list or so that is within featured, from the Chats history section we can also archive conversations, a detail to take into account in case of delete a message without archiving it is that the message will be deleted but after thirty days there will be no possibility of recovering it.
In case the number of conversations is high we can use the button "to select" which has options to select all messages, unmark, select only read, unread, highlighted and without highlighting, so we can have our conversations and manage them by keeping this section of our Gmail account organized, saving space and giving the best use to it pulled apart.
