How do I delete multiple emails in Outlook on my Iphone?

Answered by Phillip Nicastro

To delete multiple emails in Outlook on your iPhone, follow these steps:

1. Open the Mail app on your iPhone and go to your Inbox.

2. In the upper-right corner of the screen, you’ll see an Edit button. Tap on it.

3. Now, you can individually select the emails you want to delete by tapping on the circle icon next to each email. As you tap on an email, a checkmark will appear indicating that it’s selected.

4. If you want to delete all the emails in your Inbox, you can tap on the “Select All” option at the top left corner of the screen. This will automatically select all the emails in your Inbox.

5. Once you have selected the emails you want to delete, you’ll notice that a toolbar appears at the bottom of the screen with various options. One of these options is the Trash icon, which is used to delete the selected emails. Tap on the Trash icon.

6. A confirmation message will appear asking if you want to move the selected messages to the trash. Tap on the “Move to Trash” option to proceed with the deletion.

7. The selected emails will now be moved to the Trash folder and removed from your Inbox. You can access the Trash folder to permanently delete them or recover them if needed.

It’s worth mentioning that deleting emails on your iPhone will also delete them from your Outlook account on other devices or platforms. So, be cautious when deleting emails as they might be important and irretrievable once permanently deleted.

In my personal experience, I often find myself needing to delete multiple emails to keep my inbox organized and clutter-free. It’s a simple process that helps me stay on top of my email communications. By regularly deleting unnecessary emails, I can focus on the important ones and keep my inbox manageable.

Remember, the steps I’ve outlined above are specifically for the Outlook app on an iPhone. The process may vary slightly if you’re using a different email app or device, but the concept of selecting and deleting multiple emails should remain similar across most platforms.
