There are many websites and apps on the internet that can be logged in by just syncing your Gmail account. But this can prove a drawback as these sites or apps send you promotion campaigns to you for their campaign engagement. These emails can make your inbox messy and difficult to find important emails. Sometimes these emails can also be sent by a fraudster. So, today in this guide I will explain to you how to block emails on your iPhone.

Steps to Block Emails on iPhone

If you are constantly receiving spam emails from a sender that is making a mess of your inbox then you can block that sender in two ways. Let’s see how you can block emails on your iPhone.
