Triaging Emails with Email Flow

What it does

Email Flow is a swipeable triage mode that presents your emails one at a time, letting you move through your inbox at speed without the clutter of a traditional list. Each email fills the screen; you action it and move on.

How to use it

1. Open Email, then tap the Flow tab at the top of the screen.
2. Your first unread email opens full-screen. Read its contents directly on screen.
3. Use the action buttons (floating on the right side of the screen) to action the email:
4. Forward: passes the email on to someone else.
5. Reply: opens a compose window addressed to the sender.
6. Delete: removes the email.
7. Report as Spam: marks the email as spam (alert-circle icon).
8. When you're done with the email, tap Archive (bottom-left footer button) to file it away, or Mark as Unread (bottom-right footer button) to flag it for later.
9. The next email in your inbox loads automatically. Continue until your inbox is clear.

Tips & shortcuts

• Use Archive for emails you've dealt with and don't need to revisit. Use Mark as Unread when you want to come back to something later; it stays in your inbox looking fresh.
• If you receive an email with attachments and choose to Forward it, you'll be asked whether to include the attachments. You can choose to include or exclude them at that point.
• You can drop out of Email Flow at any time by tapping the back arrow.
