Although not as liberating as ditching email completely but really, who can do that Not us, so we rely on marking emails as read right from our wrists.

Indeed, you can mark emails as read or unread directly on Apple Watch, and its as simple as can be.

You can mark messages as read and unread on an iPhone if thats something you prefer, while Mac users can, of course, use Mail on their computer instead to perform the same task.
