Check Gmail Without Internet Connection With Google Gear

Gmail can now be accessed from your desktop even if you don’t have internet connection. Yes, you read it right. Now Gmail can be read in offline mode. This sounds interesting but it’s in beta stage as of now. Google launched this system under Google Labs and the software you need to use for this is called Google Gear. Lets discuss about this further.


This is more like Microsoft Outlook or Mozilla Thunderbird. All incoming mails automatically gets stored in your computer’s hard drive when you are connected to internet and later you can view all those mails on your desktop, no matter if internet is connected or not. Lets know how to do this.

1. Go to Gmail Settings –> Labs. Then enable the Offline Mode.
2. Install Gears. Now you will be able to use Gmail in offline mode.

Google has not started this feature in a broad manner. It’s in beta stage. Not everyone will get this feature as of now. You have to wait for sometime. They are giving this feature to people phase wise. And trust me, this is going to be more popular than Microsoft Outlook or Mozilla Thunderbird. Few reasons for this are:

1. This is a Google product
2. Gmail is the most used email
3. Microsoft Outlook is having a loads of bugs
4. Mozilla Thunderbird is not popular

So, this is worth waiting. And trust me, this is going to rule in everyone’s PC.
