How to filter emails on iPhone

First, filtering emails reduces the number of messages in our inbox. For example, we can automatically move an email to labels without it appearing in your inbox. It is also possible to filter emails on iPhone to send them directly to Spam or Recycle Bin.

You can easily filter out the contents of any of your email inboxes from the stock Mail app on your iPhone to find what you’re looking for.

How to view all unread emails in your inbox

To filter an inbox in the Mail app,

1. Launch the app from your Home screen and open one of your inboxes. You can use any of your individual email inboxes, or you can use the unified inbox that shows content from all of your email accounts if you choose to.

2. Once there, tap on the little round button at the bottom left of the screen with the three lines in it. This is the filter button.
