Flagging emails on an iPhone is one of the easiest ways to keep track of messages that require a follow-up, or that you don't want to lose track of in an overcrowded inbox. 

With just a tap, you can immediately see all those messages in one place and work your way through them, sending responses where needed or completing any requests they might contain.

However, sometimes it's easy to forget to unflag emails when you're done with them, leaving you with a bunch of messages you no longer need flagged. When that happens, you can unflag all of them at once in a few simple steps. 

Here's how to do it.

Note that you will need to re-flag any emails you still want quick access to in the future. 

It's easy to do this in your inbox, where you can select the messages you want to flag, tap "Mark," and then "Flag." Those emails will then appear in your Starred folder.
