Sounds like a cry for help. Send me your email address. I'll send you an encouraging word every now and again!
No. I have switched to English AU. But Canada and the UK were there also.
No, English UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and what ever English ZA is lol now
And I would just like the app to receive emails correctly and if I have two unread emails, have the badge on the icon saying 2 and not 1 or 3….
- Unsubscribe from any marketing and mailing lists, send to junk any that don’t respect that
- Read and delete/archive anything not needing an action
- Flag the limited few requiring a response/retrieval
As a person who reads and/or deletes their new emails every day so my inbox is fairly empty of new emails, I'm not sure I will use this feature much. Is it available on non-Apple Intelligence devices too?
However, as a tech support person for family and friends, having a quick button to hit to easily find subscription emails and receipts for people searching their inbox of 12,459 unread emails? Super handy.

Yes! Since upgrading my iPad to 18.01, one of my email accounts has been broken and will not update its feed. Fortunately ately, my iPhone is still running 17.7 so I can retrieve mail.
Good if you combine with something like Honey that finds you the discount codes you might otherwise miss out on
It seems to be only available on our iPhone 18.2 betas cannot find it on my iPadOS 18.2 either
I hate to be one of “those” people (negative and dismissive), but there’s absolutely nothing new here at all. Every single thing has been available for a while now via one tool or another. The “innovation” is packaging and integrating it. That’s of course valuable, and I guess for less technically adept people it is game changing. But for someone with technical acumen…well, let’s just say I’m not dying to upgrade my iPhone 14 Pro because of this.
When Apple apps organize things for me, I usually can’t find them (I’m looking at you, Photos). So I’m glad there’s a way to turn it off.
I don’t really understand this - my gmail and work accounts seem to sync between Mac and iPhone. Is it a mail provider specific issue?
Pretty awful so far (beta I know) but the categories are all over the place like according to Apple, my Wordpress login is „Promotion“ 😅 also hard to understand what the images next to an email are supposed to mean
Not keen on it having Primary selected I have emails that would get missed unless I manually go through the categories
In this case the mail provider is iCloud.
Read all mail on one device and it clears (zeroes) the unread badge on that device but none of the others.
