How can I see everything I'm subscribed to by email?
Last reviewed: September 21, 2026 · Markdown version
Gmail has no page that lists what you are signed up to, because nobody ever made that list. You said yes to a shop at a checkout, to a newsletter in 2019, to a webinar you attended once — each one a separate transaction with a separate company. The list exists only as a pattern in your inbox, and reconstructing it is the actual task.
Three ways to reconstruct it
- Search for the footer. Bulk senders are legally obliged to offer a way out, so
the word is almost always there: search
unsubscribe, then skim by sender rather than by message. Crude, and it catches most of it. - Use the Promotions tab as a proxy. Gmail already sorts most marketing mail there. It is not a complete list — receipts and "service updates" often land in Primary — but it is a fast first pass.
- Sort by sender. The insight everyone eventually has: subscriptions are defined by repetition, not by content. Anyone who has sent you thirty messages you never replied to is a subscription, whatever the mail looks like.
What each approach misses
- Senders who rotate addresses (
news@,offers@,noreply-8f2@) appear as several different things, so any by-sender view over-counts until you look. - Mail you actually want — an order update, a bank statement — carries an unsubscribe link too, and an aggressive sweep will catch it. This is why unsubscribing sender-by-sender beats "unsubscribe from everything in the search results".
- Genuine spam never honoured a list in the first place. Unsubscribing from it is a different decision, and not always the right one.
Where we fit
The by-sender view is the whole idea behind Adinand Email Cleaner. It reads your Gmail's headers — sender, subject, date, size and the unsubscribe headers bulk mail carries — and presents your mail as a list of senders with a count and a measured size against each. That list is the closest thing to "everything I'm subscribed to" that can honestly be built: one tap unsubscribes, another clears that sender's backlog, and an auto-trash rule keeps them from coming back.
It never reads message bodies, and nothing leaves your device except the direct calls it makes to Google's own Gmail API.
