    Once the app screen is displayed, expe (if necessary) the account that contains all the emails you want to delete (ex. Google) by pressing on dart which is on the right and then tap on the reference section (eg. Entry).

    If you have more than one account and you do not want to distinguish between them, you can also press directly on the items at the top of the screen (eg. Inbound), so as to view all messages in a unified way.
