**(191) How do I download and keep older messages on my device?**

You can download and keep older messages in the unified inbox folders by using *Fetch more messages* in the three-dots overflow menu of the start screen.
For other folders, you can long press the folder in the folder list of the account (tap on the account name in the navigation menu = left side menu).
Please read the remark in the confirmation dialog box.
Note that starred (favorite) messages will be kept on your device "forever".
Instead of downloading many messages to your device, consider [searching for messages on the email server](#user-content-faq13).
