A Simpler Guide to Gmail – the fifth Edition

2020 has been a strange year. It’s taken a while but I’m updating my website again and what better way to add to the site and put all the books I’ve made in 2020 on it! I published a Simpler Guide to Gmail in January this year but I’ve only just realised I didn’t put it on my own blog. I blame Covid 19, home schooling and the new puppy!

Anyway, if you are new to Gmail and want to get to grips with the online software, A Simpler Guide to Gmail is there for you. It has changed a lot over the years, the latest version has got rid of Inbox and added more chapters. Gmail keeps on changing but the essentials remain the same. With this edition you can:

  • Learn why Gmail is the best email solution
  • Set-up a new Gmail account
  • Send and receive emails
  • Avoid and explain the best way to deal with scams, spam and phishing emails
  • Protect your email from hackers
  • Organize your email
  • Understand and use the settings
  • Discover and use Google Calendar, Keep and Tasks
  • And much more…


A Simpler Guide to Gmail is a comprehensive, step-by-step guide that will show you how to navigate the sometimes confusing set of features in Gmail with an introduction to Google Calendar, Keep and Tasks.


What’s new in the A Simpler Guide to Gmail fifth edition?


This guide has been rewritten to incorporate changes to Gmail since the last edition. Chapters have been expanded and an extra chapter for Google Keep and Tasks has been added with Inbox removed.
