>>>Go Further: Stars and Labels
In the Gmail app, you use stars and labels to help organize your email. In most email clients you
can create folders in your mailbox to help you organize your emails. For example, you might
create a folder called "emails from the boss" and move any emails you receive from your boss to
that folder. The Gmail app doesn't use the term folders; it uses the term labels instead. You can
create labels in Gmail and choose an email to label. When you label the email, it is actually
moved to a folder with that label. Any email that you mark with a star is actually just getting a
label called "starred." However, when viewing your Gmail, you see the yellow star next to the
email. People normally add a star to an email as a reminder of something important.
Compose an Email
1. Tap the compose icon.
2. Tap to change the email account from which the message is being sent (if you have multiple
