Mark all as seen

Sometimes, your Imbox piles up, and it can feel overwhelming. Maybe you've been away for a while or are just looking for a fresh start. Now, with HEY, you can clear everything out and start with a clean slate using the new Mark all as seen feature.

When to Use It

If you have hundreds or thousands of emails waiting in your Imbox, it’s easy to feel stuck. Instead of slogging through one email at a time, you can quickly mark everything as seen and move on. This feature is perfect for:

  • Marking all your emails in the Imbox as seen.
  • Clearing out a backlog of emails after time away.
  • Starting fresh without archiving or deleting emails.
Hover over NEW FOR YOU in the Imbox to reveal the "Mark all as seen" button.

How It Works

  1. Hover over the NEW FOR YOU heading in the Imbox.
  2. Click the Mark all as seen button. Click OK to confirm.
  3. All emails in the NEW FOR YOU section will move to the Previously Seen section.

That's it! Your Imbox is all clear.


After marking all emails as seen:

  • They’re no longer considered "new" but remain in your Imbox under Previously Seen.
  • No emails are deleted or archived — they’re simply moved for easier management.

Mark all as seen is available on the web and desktop apps, coming soon to mobile.
