Unfortunately, recalling an email in Gmail after one day is not possible. Gmail's undo send feature allows users to recall an email only up to 30 seconds after it's been sent. After this window has passed, the email cannot be recalled or undone. However, as a preventative measure for future emails, consider adjusting the 'Undo Send' setting in Gmail to the maximum duration of 30 seconds to give yourself more time to catch any mistakes before an email is permanently sent.
