by SkillAiNest

Apple was released iOS 18.4 In March, and this update brought something New emoji To all iPhones. But when Apple released iOS 18.2 In December, it introduces a new feature to your mail app that sets your upcoming emails in different categories for you, called categories.

“The mail app automatically sets your email messages in the category to help you find messages quickly and manage them.” Apple wrote online. But if you don’t like how the category works in the mail, there is no problem, you can turn your app to look like your app before the update.

Here you need to know about mail categories and how to close this feature so it looks like your app as it did before the update.

What are the mile categories?

The categories in the mail are like the categories you will find in Gmail. The app filters your emails in one of the four types: primary, transactions, updates and promotions.

Receipts fill the category of emails, orders and delivery information transactions, and news, social and other subscription emails go on updates. Special offerings and deals emails go into promotions, as you can imagine.

It is a bit more difficult to download the primary category. Apple writes in the app that the primary is “for messages that are the most important.” I have used a re -designed app since I was launched in the beta, and at that time my main category was full of my wife, customer service and even withdrawal information emails. This catch is a bit of a category.

Can I change the e -mail category?

Most of the messages you have. Can do but not all. How is it here

1. Tap the mail.
2. Tap the transactions, updates or promotion tabs in the upper part of the mail, but not the primary, and tap a message.
3. Tap the three dots (8 speaking about the day about living) In the top right corner.
4. Tap Rating.

Then you can manually classify a sender’s messages in another category. Unfortunately, all the messages of a sender will go into a new category, which can be unhealthy.

Once, I ordered tickets for a show at a local theater, and the email was filtered in promotions. I moved the email to the primary with these tickets, but now all the theater emails – including deals and sales – go to my category. It is annoying to not be able to change this rating back.

It is important to note that you can improve email from promotions for deals and then return to promotions without any problem. Only emails that cannot be corrected are those in primary.

How do I close the category in the mail?

If you don’t like mail categories, you can remove them so that it looks like a mail it has done before the update. How is it here

1. Tap the mail.
2. Tap the three dots (8 speaking about the day about living) In the upper right corner of the app.
3. Tap See the list.

Now your emails will be settled from top to bottom as soon as you arrive in your inbox.

Here is also called a mile category All miles It apparently integrates new varieties with a list view, but you may have lost it – as I did. To find out All milesCategory, go to mail with categories and swipe the category bar near the upper part of the mail All miles. Tap it and you will still see the category tabs in the upper part of the mail, but all your mail will be shown in the list view as it goes into your inbox.
