How to Mark an Email as Reply Later? How to Add an Email to Tasks?

Setting an email aside takes one tap, and there are two places to do it:

  1. From the mail-view 3-dot menu. Open the email, tap the 3-dot menu, and choose Reply Today or Reply Later.
  2. From a swipe. Swipe on the email in the list and choose the Reply Later action, once you have added it to your swipe menu.

The two choices differ only in when the email comes back:

  • Reply Today sets it aside for later the same day, with nothing further to choose.
  • Reply Later opens a list of times, so you pick when it returns: Later Today, This Evening, Tomorrow Morning, Next Week, In a Month, Someday, or a date of your own.

Either way the email leaves your inbox for the moment and reappears when it is due, which keeps your attention on what is genuinely urgent. For mail from a service rather than a person, the same entries read Read Today and Read Later.

You will find everything you have set aside waiting on your Later Board.
