Temporary Gmail: what you actually need
If you’re looking for a “temporary Gmail”, you need an email to sign up somewhere without giving out yours. Gmail has no throwaway addresses, but there’s a quicker way to get one.

Is there such a thing as a temporary Gmail?
No. A @gmail.com address is a Google account: it asks for your details, a phone number and a password, and it stays forever.
Sites that promise a “temporary Gmail” usually hand out addresses that aren’t yours, and other people can read the codes you receive.
What about Gmail’s + trick?
If you already have Gmail, you can add +something before the @ (your.name+shop@gmail.com) and the messages still reach you.
But it doesn’t hide you: the site still knows your email, many of them spot it, and the ads end up in your usual inbox.

The quick way: a temporary email
A temporary email gives you a new address the moment you open the page, with no account or password. Your code or confirmation link arrives and, when you no longer need it, it disappears with its messages.
Your Gmail stays clean for what really matters.
