Last Updated on: March 9th, 2023
Here are a few of the most interesting Gmail statistics and facts I was able to dig up including Gmail user counts. As always, be sure to check back in the future as I will be updating this post as new and updated stats become available.
Gmail is a free web-based email service provided by Google. It was first launched in 2004 and has since become one of the most widely used email services worldwide, with over 1.5 billion active users.
Gmail provides users with an email account that allows them to send and receive emails, as well as access to various other features. These features include spam filtering, the ability to organize emails into folders and labels, integration with other Google services such as Google Drive and Google Calendar, and support for attachments of up to 25MB in size.
Users can access Gmail from any device with an internet connection, including desktop computers, laptops, smartphones, and tablets. The service is also available in multiple languages and offers a user-friendly interface that is easy to navigate.

Please note that some of these numbers are easier to find than others. A few of these Gmail statistics come from their own reports, but some are based on news reports and not official company tallies. No information contained on DMR should be relied upon to make investment decisions. Basically, this is the best I can find and I don’t guarantee anything to be 100%.
