My biggest gripe with the iOS mail app: How easy it is to accidentally flag all messages

[STOCK411]

I cant be the only one who has (on occasion) accidentally tapped flag all messages when trying to click mark all as read?

You would think there would be some type of confirmation prompt asking if you want to perform that action. As a result, it flags every email in all my inboxes (which can be thousands depending on how old the email address is). I then need to go online (for example gmail.com) and have Gmail unflag every message in my inbox, which causes me to lose any messages I had intentionally flagged prior...


(for instance: right now Gmail is still unflagging messages from 2022......)

This has never happened to me 🤣 And Mail is the only e-mail app I use on my iPhone.

Have not happened to me either and I also exclusively uses Apple email.

I’ve never had it happen to me either. However I have accidentally marked something as junk.

I mean... yeah, they're next to each other. But still, slow down a bit. I've never done it either.
