Sent from my iPad

I see no point in having it. And for people that don't know it's an automatic default they probably think its really weird that someone would put that
 
Everything I have to say is always so insightful that the reader is so awestruck they miss my auto signature.

Would have been sent from my iPad if I was at home.
 
iPad signature

Now what I REALLY want is the ability to add different, custom signatures for each mail account. Having one signature for both my customers and my personal mail is far from ideal. 😡

Why not. Nothing wrong in letting the receiver know that information.
Privacy freaks much?

Not for privacy reasons. I'm saying it is irrelevant information. If I am on my iPad I could very well be 10' from my desktop. It just happens the iPad was closer and I sent the e-mail. It's not like it's telling you where I am.
 
it just really depends. I always keep it on my devices bc sometimes i may reply with something shorter since i'm on a mobile device instead of regular email. I get emails from friends and family where i ask questions and they don't even respond correctly to the email and their response is....i was on my iPhone and was going to respond fully later.

I keep on iPhone and iPad, since I want to let others known that I'm not on computer right now.

Why would they care which device you're using? Just curious🙂. I removed mine because my family didn't want me to be an "i-douche" - their exact words.🙄 Oh, yeah, I am one anyway, signature or not.

Since I do web developer, part time. When a client is asking for something and I replay from iPhone this means I'm away from desktop. Just this. (honestly)

I delete it, when I reply to friends and family 🙂

First, it's there by default. I wouldn't set it by myself. Why should I change/remove it anyways?
Also, I like letting my friends know where I'm writing emails from. Where's the problem?

I'm not saying it's a problem. I'm asking what the point is.
 
Yeah, it lets people know that I'm on the go. Never thought of it as a form of showing off.

I have not changed my signature since I started using an iPad. I find it funny how some people find it offensive that I don't remove that sentence from my signature. So the question is: Do you use the default signature, or have you changed it to something else?

I changed it to something else, but I'm about to remove the signature line altogether.
 
Removed and replaced with my name and the name of my company!

I have no desire to advertise for Apple but from the looks of the equipment lists I see in these forums, no doubt many of you do!😛
 
Years ago I refused to buy a car that already had the dealer plaque mounted on it. I was buying the car to drive, not as a billboard for their business.

I feel the same way about "Sent from my iDevice." If Apple wants to pay me to advertise for them, I may reconsider.
 
I have it on there. It's like the old "sent from my Blackberry". I added AT&T to my iPhone, as the default on Verizon devices has Verizon in it, so I figured I should put AT&T on mine.

I'm not planning on using email on my iPad though, so I won't have the opportunity to set it up in the first place.
 
I took it off because my friends and coworkers already tease me about being addicted to my iPad, there's no need to give them more material. And for work-related communications, the fact that a message is coming from my home email lets them know I'm out of the office, yet still dedicated to my job 😀

Agreed. Also acts as a cover yourself in case you made a typo or autocorrect kicked in without you noticing. Whilst not necessarily the best particularly in business it still helps provide context to a reply. It also may explain a particularly abrupt or short email.
 
Changed to "Sent from my Blackberry device" in order to have uniformity across the board. 😀

Also have bilingual disclaimer rider above that:

"The contents of this message may contain confidential and/or privileged
subject matter. If this message has been received in error, please contact
the sender and delete all copies..." yada yada...
