Unread Mail Filter for all Folders
Smart search folder that will show all unread emails from all folders, the same as in outlook for desktop. This feature will be perfect to use with exchange rules.

As a sales person I have many accounts and I filter each customer into their own folder for organization and therefore have to scroll through each folder rather than being able to see all unread emails in one unread folder such as on my pc. Is this feature available?

A folder that shows all your unread email (from all folders, or at least all favourited folders)

Agree with the other commentators that an “Unread” folder needs to be added to the Outlook app (similar to the corresponding folder in the desktop version).
When will this very helpful feature be added?

Make the read and unread emails much clearer to distinguish, I absolutely hate the inbox on office 365.

You need to include an unread emails search folder, similar to desktop version of Outlook. I have a number of rules and folders so that incoming emails are filed appropriately but as a result Outlook doesn’t notify me of emails coming into those folders - notification only seems to work on the inbox. Also, the unread email count doesn’t update for a particular folder unless I check that specific folder. Outlook on iPhone therefore doesn’t show me all my incoming unread emails and I regularly miss them on my phone.

When I️ open on desktop, all unread emails are pushed to the top.
But when I️ open on phone and emails are organized by chronological. Which is a great feature but it takes forever to search of unread emails. Can we have unread emails pushed to the top and still maintaining the order of dates

Yes, totally agree! I need this Unread I’m favourite for unread messages in all folders. This appears in Outlook Desktop but not in the app. Please include this in the next version. Desperate need it.

Oftentimes the unread filter goes walkabout and I have to shut the app down and restart to disable this filter.

This 2 part system the Focused and Inbox is very annoying. Just have ONE inbox like there was a while ago! Not happy-thinking of deleting this email account and go elsewhere.

Outlook app does not display the unread in folders. Only the Native app shows those. I use rules to filter email into folders with longer retention schedules. I need to see and respond to unread items in these folders.

Please add the feature to unread an email if it is important and needs additional review later in outlook for IOS.

There are complaints all over forums to have the Unread Mail Filter have an option to include all folders instead of just the current.
Outlook for Windows has this feature. Please consider it’s benefit and need. This is a critical feature for functionality.
