Let’s see a couple of workarounds to delete bulk emails from your iPhone in one shot. Editor’s Note: As there is no option on iOS to select all the emails with a single tap, you can use either of the two options to select multiple emails: Folders, Search.

Delete Multiple Emails in Folders on iPhone

By default, the Mail app on your iPhone or iPad will have folders like Inbox, Junk, Draft, Sent, Trash, Flagged and more. Also, if you follow the habit of organizing your emails on separate folders like Work, Family, Friends, etc, then you will find those folders as well on your Mail app. However, you won’t find a Delete All option on all folders except Junk and Trash. Now, how will you select multiple emails on any of these folders? Won’t you find that painful to select the email one by one? No worries. You can use the below steps to easily select and delete multiple emails from any of your folders. For example, let’s see how to quickly delete hundreds of emails from the folder Flagged.

Now, all the emails on the folder titled Flagged have been successfully deleted from your iPhone. Likewise, you can follow the above procedure to mass delete emails from your iPhone Mailbox.

Search and Delete All Emails on iPhone

If you are someone who doesn’t have the habit of organizing your emails into folders, then what will you do? Because you will not find any folders other than your Inbox and Junk. Right? In this scenario, the best option is to select all emails with the same subject or sender and then delete them at once. Mostly, all of us will get a lot of marketing or promotion emails from different retailers. For the long run, the best approach would be to unsubscribe from that email lists. However, if you have not done that yet, then try out the below-listed steps to quickly delete multiple emails from your iPhone.

Once all the emails are deleted, your screen will display the message “No results found”, as all the emails that matched the search criteria have been moved to the trash. You can repeat the above approach to delete bulk emails with the same subject or sender. However, if you would like to really save time, avoid subscribing to a lot of marketing emails.

Swipe and Delete Emails on iPhone

If you would like to delete emails immediately after you read them, then you can do that by configuring the Swipe Options (Swipe Left, Swipe Right) on your iPhone. First, let’s see how to configure the Swipe settings on your iPhone.

Now you set up the swipe action for the email. Now you can launch the email app on the iPhone and see the swipe action to delete the email quickly.

Whenever you need to delete a single email, you can follow the above steps. Now, the email has been moved to trash. Even though you cannot select multiple emails using the above procedure, still it is a quick option to delete the emails on your iPhone.

Swipe to Archive or Delete

Have you observed that every time you slide right to left completely, it only shows the option to Archive your messages, but not delete them? Actually, that depends on your mailbox setting and you can set either Archive/Delete based on your need. Let’s see how to do that.

Now, if you slide right to left completely, you will see the Delete option instead of Archive.

How to Delete all Emails on iPad

A lot of people use their iPad to check their emails, as it looks better to read the text on a bigger screen. Of course, you can use all the above methods listed above to delete emails on your iPad. And, the menu options to select or delete multiple emails is exactly the same as for iPhone. So, you can go ahead and repeat the steps mentioned in any of the three methods to mass delete emails on the iPad. Now, let’s try the same example of deleting all emails of the Flagged folder on the iPad.
