  • A free account can clean 1,000 emails, plus 100 a week with reminders on. Screener, Auto Clean and the Unsubscriber need a paid plan.
  • It is not an email client: it connects to your mailbox and works alongside the email app you already use.
  • Prices here are US prices from the App Store listings and Clean Email's own pages. Its plans page shows local-currency prices that vary by region.
  • The US App Store lists 5-account purchases at several prices without a billing period, so that plan's price is given as a range.
