Apple has revealed a range of new features for iCloud Mail in the upcoming iOS 18 update to make email management easier and improve the user experience. The update is part of the larger iOS 18 release, which includes more than 250 new features.
The enhancements include new tools to help users organize and maintain their emails more efficiently. Users will now have access to advanced cleanup options through the Mail app, iCloud.com, and iCloud Mail settings. One of the key additions is the cleanup tools, which allow users to better manage their email storage. These tools let users set rules based on time to automatically delete or archive emails.
For example, users can automatically purge or archive unread promotional emails that are over a year old, helping to declutter their inboxes. This feature will make use of Mail categories, which will be introduced in a future update of iOS 18. Another useful improvement is the bulk unsubscribe function, which allows users to unsubscribe from multiple senders at once. Future emails from these sources will then be directed to Trash, reducing the amount of unwanted emails and helping users keep their inboxes organized.
While iOS 18 is set to be released on Monday, September 16, these specific iCloud Mail features may be rolled out in a subsequent update. Users who are excited to try out these new functionalities will have to wait for the final rollout of the iCloud Mail updates.
Overall, these enhancements aim to simplify email management and enhance the user experience for iCloud Mail users. Keep an eye out for the official release of these features to make the most of these new tools for better email organization.
