Using “Find in Page”
Productivity is all about making extra time for more valuable moments like time with family. So using the Ctrl+F (Win) or Command+F (macOS) “Find In Page” browser search feature is one more great time and energy saver habit worth using. If you haven’t used it yet - you should! It’s a great technique when using your SaneBox Email Cleanup tool and/or for jumping to a word or name or address within any content you’re looking through in a web browser.
Can I use it on mobile?
- Chrome Quick Steps: Overflow Menu for “Find In Page”, a best friend for quick SaneBox Email Cleanup scans.
- Safari Quick Steps: Key search term into the browser address bar up top, looking down suggested results for “On This Page.” (inconspicuously, it has been hiding there for years.)
Why should I use it?
Using your web browser’s Find In Page tool can be a speedy supercharger when you’re scanning through your SaneBox Email Cleanup listing and you’re on the hunt for a certain email sender name or address or subject word. Tip: try Find In Page search for the whole name or email address and also try partial entries like just what’s after the @.
