Gmail offers several inbox types. Here are some common options:

Default (Classic): This is the traditional view with Primary, Social, Promotions, Updates, and Forums tabs. 

 Important first: This shows important emails at the top, followed by everything else.

     Unread first: Prioritizes unread emails at the top.

Starred first: Displays emails you've starred at the top.

Priority Inbox: Allows you to customize what's shown in your inbox based on importance.

     Multiple Inboxes: Lets you create custom sections for specific email categories.


4.Customize Inbox Type:

 Depending on your choice, you can further customize settings. For instance, you can define which emails are considered important or set up rules for multiple inboxes.


5.Save Changes:

After making your selection and customizations, click "Save Changes."


6.Adjust Tabs and Categories:

 If you opt for the default view, you can also manage tabs like Social, Promotions, Updates, and Forums in the "Categories" section.


7.Test and Refine:

Use your chosen inbox type for a while and adjust as needed based on your email habits and preferences.


Remember that what works best for you may not be the same for someone else, so it's essential to choose an inbox type that aligns with your email management style and needs.
