Google's Gmail, a popular communication service, has introduced a new feature to let users batch-select messages in a threadlist using the "Select all" option. The platform is popular across the globe for its intuitive UI and feature set, which Google upgrades regularly. According to the tech giant, the feature is rolling out on Android and iOS (Rapid Release and Scheduled Release domains) devices.

According to the search leader, this feature allows people to bulk-select messages within a threadlist. However, this new checkbox lets users select the first 50 messages within the conversation list. You can only select all messages after scrolling to the bottom and pressing the "Select all" checkbox.
