Undo Send is a great feature in Gmail that lets you stop a message being sent before anyone has a chance to read it.
How does it work?
Think of it as a countdown timer that begins whenever you send an email. You have until that timer runs out to stop that email from ever leaving your Gmail.
If you decide you don't want to send an email, you have a short time after to cancel it. Right after you send a message, you can retract it:
In the bottom left, you'll see "Message sent" and the option to "Undo" or "View message".
Click Undo.
On your computer, go to Gmail.
In the top right, click Settings Settings.
Next to "Undo Send," select a Send cancellation period of 5, 10, 20, or 30 seconds.
Did you know you can also schedule an email to be sent?
