- Log into your Gmail account and go to your inbox.
- Ensure the Primary tab is selected (this is your main inbox).
- Go to the Search Mail bar and click the dropdown arrow to open the filter options.
- Using the Size option, select Greater Than or Less Than, then specify the file size. If you’re looking for large attachments, you will likely use the Greater Than option.

Sort Gmail by Size: Looking for Large Files
Large files can take up a lot of space in your Gmail account. Sometimes you may need to keep these files, but sometimes you can get rid of them to make room.
It can take some time to find the big files in your inbox. If you know the file size you want to find, you can use a simple search function to filter only those emails.
- Log into your Gmail account and open your inbox.
- Go to the Search Mail bar and type size:[file size]. For example, if you want to find all emails greater than 5 MB, you can type the following: size:5000000. The size you type will be in bytes.
- Another option is to search for a range of file sizes using a function. Using the search bar, you can type the following: larger_than:XMB smaller_than:YMB. In this function, you can replace the X and Y with the desired number range.
- Click Enter.
