Get rid of suggested folders for moving emails
By adding suggested folders, you’ve added a step when I need to move an email that was filtered into spam from spam folder into my inbox.

Give me a way to set the swipe to move where we want it to go not your suggestion!

Disagree with some of the comments. I love the suggested folders feature, and it saves me clicks.
I'd just show suggested but also show all folders (like what Whatsapp does when sharing stuff into whatsapp). This will also reduce the overhead of another toggle.

Allow user to pick the folders to which inbox items are most commonly moved. Your suggested folders auto-pick algorithm isn’t very accurate causing more steps than it attempts to save. Fix it or get rid of it.

Instead of a suggested folder for what you think we want to move an email to, make it a favourites folder and allow us to choose our top three files.

Agreed!
Suggested folders only show folders I haven’t used in years.
None of my frequently used are shown (like move to inbox or move to spam). -

Yes please give me a way to opt out of this. The suggestions are wrong and add extra steps and the chance of moving it to the wrong folder.

When a feature is an impediment to efficiency, it is actually an annoying hindrance. The suggested folders are rarely right and then it takes more steps to actually move the messages. At least give users a way to opt out.

Why can we not move several items in one go?

Agreed. Just add a toggle switch to make this feature optional.

A new change you added isn’t having the desired effect. When I swipe to move a message from my inbox now I’m getting a suggested folders list. The folder I want isn’t the one suggested and I don’t see a way to turn this feature off or select a favorite folder to always suggest. Now I have an extra tap for something I do 100s of times a day! Please help.

THIS. Thank law someone else agrees with me. It’s absolutely ridiculous that we don’t have an option to turn this off. The folder suggestions are ALWAYS WRONG in every scenario and adds an additional step to get to all my folders for me to move my emails. I do this several times a day because I organize everything in my inbox - the feature is incredibly frustrating.

All it does is take up time and make me do a second click when I am trying to organize my inbox.
