Google has tonnes of productivity tools and one very important tool by Google is Gmail. Gmail is used by billions of people from around the world since it was launched back in 2004. Gmail is one of the most used platforms by people worldwide besides Yahoo Mail and Outlook.

Now, when compared to its competitors, I think Google still has some of the best features. However, I still feel some improvement can be made to the spam email feature. Sometimes, even when you label an email as spam, it may still find its way into your Gmail inbox.

If this happens, the next option is to block the sender so you no longer receive emails from that particular sender. In this guide, I will show you how to block a particular sender in Gmail via your iPhone or Android device or even computer.

When you are sent a message on your Gmail account, and the sender is blocked from your end, the sent email will automatically be moved to the spam folder. Not to worry; the sender will not be aware of this. Below are three sections based on the devices you would like to use to perform this action.
