In LINK Email, there are two ways to multi-select emails in order to take action on several emails in one pass.

Such actions are Delete, File, Flag, Unread, Read, and more.

The two multi-select options are:

-I. Using Selection Toggles (Check Boxes)

-II. Using Selection Mode (Long Touch)

I. Selection Toggles in Left Margin

First, choose whether you want the Selection Toggles to Always be displayed in the Inbox or only when you are in Selection Mode. Set your preference in the Email Settings.

Now go to the section below: Actions - How to Take Action on Selected Emails

II. Selection Mode

In the Inbox, a “long touch” on a email will put the Inbox in Selection Mode. A haptic signal will indicate that you are in Selection Mode. Turn Selection Mode on in the LINK Email Settings (Inbox > Gear icon).

Settings: Enable “Selection Mode on a long touch” as shown below.

When Selection Mode is activated by a long touch, the Selection Toggles will be displayed in the left margin of the Inbox and the Toggle will be checked beside the email where the long touch took place. See below.

The image below shows:

  • A long touch on the Bloomberg email turns on the Selection Toggles in the left margin and checks the one next to the Bloomberg email.

  • At the bottom of the Inbox there is a banner, “You are in selection mode. Tap to exit.”

A haptic will signal that you have entered Selection Mode.

Multi-select

Now that you are in Selection Mode, tap as many other emails as you like to multi-select. The check-marks will be checked when you tap the emails.

If you don’t want to be in Selection Mode, tap the banner to exit or tap Clear in the upper left.

Actions - How to Take Action on Selected Emails

  1. Action Icons: Take action from the Trash, File, Flag, and Unread icons across the top of the Inbox.

    OR…

  2. Swipe Menus: Swipe across one of the Selected emails and tap on the action in the swipe menu.

In Email Settings (Inbox > Gear icon), you may configure your personal swipe menus.

Settings for Selection Mode

When Selection Mode is enabled, there will be no check boxes displayed in the Inbox. In Selection Mode, you use the long touch on a Email to turn on Selection Mode, then tap one or more Emails, then tap or swipe an action.

To turn on Selection Mode go to Email Settings from the Gear icon in the Inbox.

Then, toggle, “Enable selection mode on long touch” to Blue/On.
