Gmail, one of the most widely used email providers globally, offers multiple features to manage your emails effectively. However, one of the problems that users often encounter is a cluttered inbox filled with unread emails. If you’re one of those people who wish to clean up your inbox, here’s a simple guide on how to mark all emails as read in the Gmail Android and iOS app.
Android
Unfortunately, the Gmail app on Android doesn’t have a built-in option to mark all emails as read. However, there’s a workaround for this using the desktop version of Gmail. Here are the steps:
- Open your preferred browser and visit mail.google.com.
- Log in with your Gmail credentials.
- In your inbox, click on the checkbox at the top of the list to select all emails.
- Click on the “More” button (three vertical dots) at the top of the page.
- Select “Mark as read.”
Once you’ve done this, all your emails should now be marked as read in your Gmail App on Android.
iOS
If you’re an iOS user, the process is much simpler. Here’s how you can do it:
- Launch the Gmail app on your iPhone or iPad.
- Tap on the three horizontal lines at the top left corner to open the menu.
- Scroll down and tap on “All Mail.”
- Tap on “Edit” at the top right corner.
- Tap on “Mark All,” and then select “Mark as Read.”
That’s it! All your emails should now be marked as read.
Remember that the changes you make will sync across all your devices where you use Gmail. So, even if you mark everything as read on your phone, it will also reflect on your computer and other devices.
Stay organized, and keep your inbox clutter-free with these simple steps. Gmail is a powerful tool for managing your emails, and knowing how to make the most of its features can help you save time and remain productive.
