Clean your inbox
with AI.
MailBroom connects to any IMAP email account and uses AI to classify, bulk-delete, unsubscribe, and organise your emails — 100% privately on your device. Sweep Mode guides you through your inbox one sender at a time — colour-coded cards suggest the right action instantly, clearing thousands of emails in minutes. Your emails never leave your phone.
How It Works
Clean in three steps
Connect your inbox
Enter your IMAP server details (Gmail, Outlook, iCloud, or any email provider). Credentials are stored in iOS Keychain only — never sent to any third party.
AI scans & classifies
MailBroom analyses your senders, ranks them by volume, and classifies every email as Junk, Lists, or Keep — entirely on-device. For large inboxes, Sweep Mode launches automatically.
Sweep, delete & organise
Sweep Mode presents colour-coded sender cards — red for delete, orange for unsubscribe, blue for keep. One tap per sender clears 10,000 emails in minutes.
Sweep Mode
The fastest way to conquer a large inbox. MailBroom ranks your senders by volume — newsletters, retailers, and notifications first — then guides you through them one at a time. Colour-coded cards suggest the right action so you barely have to think. Free users get 5 sessions total (one-time allowance, never expires); Pro users get unlimited.

Storage Cleanup
Free up space by deleting old, large emails in bulk. MailBroom groups senders by how much storage they use — browse by age bracket or by email domain to bulk-clean an entire organisation at once. D / U / K badges on every sender let you mark Delete, Unsubscribe, or Keep in seconds.

- ✓Tap any sender to expand inline — see their recent emails, then open a full email view
- ✓D / U / K action badges — Delete, Unsubscribe, or Keep per sender

- ✓Runs silently in the background
- ✓Combine with Smart Delete for a clean sweep

Smart Sweep Grouped Mode
Group senders by category, choose a different action for each sender, then execute them all in bulk. AI suggests the safest action based on sender type — Keep (with date options) for newsletters, Delete for high-volume junk. Takes priority over individual sweeps in Pro mode.
- ✓Filter by category: Newsletters, Retail, or Promotional
- ✓Optional filters: unread only, older than 90 days
