How to Create Labels in the Gmail App
Android
Visit https://www.gmail.com using Google Chrome. Although there is no option to create labels on the Gmail Android app, you can do so on a web browser. The trick here is to view the desktop version of Gmail, which is why you need to access it the above way.
Technically, you can use any web browser, but some options will look slightly different on each browser (as will screen size).
"Desktop view" is different from the "Request Desktop Site" option in your web browser. "Desktop view" allows you to create labels in Gmail, but "Request Desktop Site" does not.
Log in to your Gmail account. After signing in, you'll be asked to use the Gmail app instead.
Click Use the web version or I am not interested . The optional content you see will vary depending on the browser. After opting out of the app, the web-based version of Gmail will appear.
Tap the menu with the three horizontal lines ☰ icon in the upper left corner.
Scroll down and tap Desktop . This option is in the bottom center of the menu, next to "View Gmail in". The lite desktop version of Gmail will appear, and you can now create labels.
Tap the gear icon or the Settings option . One of these two options will appear in the upper right corner, depending on the web browser.
If you're using a tablet, you may need to tap See all settings first.
Click the Labels tab . It's at the top of the right pane. Existing labels will appear with the option to create new labels.
Enter a new label name and click Create . If you don't see the data entry field, you need to click Create new label at the bottom of the previous label list. Once created, you can use the new label right on Gmail, including the mobile app version.

Scroll down and tap + Create new . This option is below the "Labels" heading and existing labels.
