How to flag an email message on iPhone and iPad

Sometimes you get an email that you want to easily find again later, maybe to follow up, maybe just to keep handy. Luckily, your iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad Mail app comes with this functionality built right in. All you have to do to keep special track of a message is flag it. Then you can read, reply, or refer to again quickly and easily, whenever you need to.

1. Launch the Mail app from the Home screen of your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad.

2. Tap on the Inbox or other mail box that contains the message you'd like to flag.
3. Tap the Edit button in the upper right hand corner.

4. Tap on the message or messages you'd like to flag. They'll get highlighted.

5. Tap on the Mark button in the lower right hand corner.
6. Tap Flag.

7. An icon will appear next to the message so you'll know it's flagged.

Once you have a message (or messages) flagged, a special Flagged mailbox will appear in your Mail account list. Tap on it to see a list of all your flagged messages.

If you ever want to unflag a message, you'll repeat the same steps as above and choose Unflag the second time around.
