So I just bought a new phone last week and I'm in the process of downloading all my apps and setting it up. I was trying to log into the Slack app when this pop-up appeared with a list of all the emails that I've ever used.

Half of them were old email accounts that I haven't used in a while and they ranged from Gmail to Yahoo to Outlook and even my old college email address showed up. Where are these emails stored and how can I remove them from my device?

I've wrecked my brain and could not figure this out. Any help would be appreciated!

Go into settings >accounts and back up>,accounts you'll see a list and tap in which you want deleted
 
That's the first thing I've tried. Only two of my main email addresses are under the Accounts section in Settings. I've got no idea where the other email addresses came from. I've never even typed them on this new phone.

Maybe they got transferred to your new phone, otherwise delete those apps and see if it still comes up
 
Mystery solved! The emails are saved in my Google Account under Passwords Manager. Just had to dig in there and delete everything.
