How to create a customized Inbox Pause schedule
Note: Some Inbox Pause features are currently in a limited release beta. Available features may vary.
Want to disconnect during Work Hours and get email notifications during specific times per day? Or, are you hoping to create Focus Time while also disconnecting from email outside of work? Boomerang's powerful new Inbox Pause features give you the ability to integrate multiple of these features at once.
How to customize your Inbox Pause schedule
1
Click
Pause Inbox in the top left corner of Gmail.
2
Click
Mix and Match.
3
Click
Add Action.
4
From here, you can choose specific times to: Pause your Inbox, Batch Delivery of Emails, or Unpause your Inbox. Repeat as desired.
5
Customize any additional Pause Settings. You can create an Auto-Reply to let senders know your Inbox is paused, whitelist certain email addresses, domains, and words with Delivery Exceptions, and/or hide the label that stores your emails so it's less accessible.
6
Once the schedule fits your needs, click
Turn On Custom Schedule to confirm.
