Remove iOS unread notifications if read on another device

[SoMuchToGrok]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

When using the iOS app in tandem with another client (i.e. browser), I effectively need to manage 2 independent sets of notifications. After having read an email on my desktop, the iOS notification persists until I manually swipe it away.

This is an inconvenience that often results in me thinking I have an unread email, despite having already read the email on my desktop. This user experience isn't ideal, and at times it feels like all I'm doing is swiping notifications away on my iPhone.

Describe the solution you'd like

Unread email notifications should be cleared from iOS devices when users view an unread email on a non-iOS app client. The system doesn't need to be incredibly real-time. In other words, some element of removal lag can be tolerated (in my opinion).

Describe alternatives you've considered

The only temporary workaround I've considered is disabling iOS notifications entirely. This is obviously a heavy hammer approach, but it effectively stops the bleed.
