Gmail Recovery – How to Recover a Gmail Draft

gmail

I was working on an important email in Gmail over several days, on both my iPad and computer.

When I look for it now, it's not there. I DID NOT DISCARD THE DRAFT.

It's not anywhere in Gmail, not in trash, not in drafts.

How can I recover this email?

Best Answer

There are a couple of circumstances that could allow users to recover a discarded draft message in Gmail

  • The "Undo discard" link is still shown in the Gmail web app. Click it before it disappears!
  • The user has a device that is not synced yet that has a copy of the draft.

If none of the above circumstances occurs, then is not possible to recover a discarded draft message in Gmail.

There are a lot of posts about this in the Gmail Help Forum: recover drafts
