iOS 13 Mail - Move Message To Junk Folder

The right approach is to have the most common tasks at the bottom of the window (not in the selected email - you can add a separate reply button there if you want to make it clear which email to reply to), and a ... button (not a reply arrow!) for the full menu. The current design makes nothing better and many things worse.

Luckily ipadOS mail is still sane, otherwise one would lose hope.

iOS 13 has lots of things I do not like in it that we’re fine the way they were before iOS 13. Most frustrating is changing options from 5 to 2 to sort Mail. iOS 13 did similar thing in photos as you try to organize them. They have reduced quick organizing to taking more steps for every item. Then my frustration with iOS notes. This is where I keep running record of important lists with dates. Dates were highlighted that were in future from type for dates that had past. It’s was the visual difference in the way the dates looked that let me know what was coming up at a quick glance. Yellow highlight of type color meant that was coming up, black highlight of type color meant that date had past. Now all type is black color no mater what dates are and only type color highlighted to yellow are numbers that might be phone number but are not. iOS didn’t really seem to take organization of massive amounts of information quickly simple and with least amount of touches in mind when it was designed. Then their is iOS 13.1.2 update after updating the notification for settings red dot with number 1 is still there & nothing I tru is removing it even after the update and there are no other updates. I hate notification red circles often if possible I turn them off it just looks messy on my iPhone screen especially if it’s for something I do not need to pay attention to or do. Right now I am really unhappy with iOS 13 not been happy with mail from last major change in iOS. Apple is pushing me closer to using Gmail app and not using Apple mail app anymore. Can’t create apple.com email address and most I use daily are gmail.com. There is a constant problem with any aol email address and yahoo not keeping password updated and tired of entering it over and over which is why I use gmail instead. iPhone seems to not keep track of other email address passwords correctly requiring them to be added over and over weekly.

I agree with all these posts, in an era when you receive dozens of emails a day I could sit on the train and sift through them and automatically file them as iPhone would predict the folder. Now it is convoluted absurd way of filing an email. Please change it! This is enough to send me into the arms of Samsung

This was THE DUMBEST and worst update idea ever. You just took a simple process, like deleting and email, and made it complicated. Way to make my life more difficult. So much for calling it a "smart phone"

Let us all hope for a change in next iOS update! If this iOS can for sure NOT described with one word it’s the word PRO :-)). Everybody who really needs to work with the phone is angry multiple times a day

Yes, I'm sure you will see a flood of angry users about this change. And why, now there is a bunch of white space on the bottom of the screen when viewing individual emails. So you just moved everything under one button making it less efficient. It's obvious that the product owner of this does not deal with a lot of emails, as nobody would have made this change. I literally go through and file away 300+ emails a day. Yes, as another user pointed out, it's just an additional scroll, but that is a significant waste of time. The pop up with all the various options is great. The design should have been to leave 1.) a reply button 2.) the file/move button and 3.) MORE (with all the additional options). This is such a minor thing, but it's going to annoy the heck out of corporate users using this, which are typically the users which are having to file through hundreds of emails a day. The only other button that was left is the delete button. So I'm guessing the product owner though, well, they can just delete the email. at least that wasn't moved under the reply button, or this would be REALLY painful.

I hope this thread gets some traction. I personally had to search a few different ways before I was able to find this. Trying searching google for "new apple ios 13 mail app missing button move on individual mail screen". lol. It's a miracle I found this page.

PLEASE bring it back. Even better, which I thought may have been the intention was that you could CUSTOMIZE which buttons were in that bottom bar. That would be great. This change was obviously not user tested. Sometimes I wish I could quit my day job and just be a product owner/advisor on the 5 apps I use most in my life. ;)

It would be great to hear someone from Apple here and commenting this serious issue! What was the thought behind this ... why do you call a new phone „pro“ and demonstrate in IOS that this is for everybody but professionals

So do I. There's no reason to have removed it from the menu bar -- it's not like you're short of real estate. And that one tap when it "knows" where you normally put this kind of message is a HUGE time saver when you're trying to get through a large number of them in a hurry. Thankfully iPadOS didn't suffer the same flaw.

Thanks. That's an improvement. Still not ideal, because the new iPadOS still works the way I'm accustomed to, which means now I have two processes to remember rather than one. But at least it has the same agent intelligence to remember where I usually file messages from "X" and offer that as a direct move.

Agree, the team made this decision gets 3 mails per day for sure. I would understand if they have replaced it with something, but its just empty space now - „improvemet“ is the key word here. Sadly, we are just moaning morons for them now....

Fully agree! Have to manage 100 mails per day which I could do easily. Without the move button it’s a nightmare and far away from smooth UX, dropping my business efficiency by far..

Apple, please bring back this functionality!!!

I can’t believe (well, maybe I can) that Apple would actually go to the effort to remove usable features out of their operating system. It now takes several steps to complete what used to take one. Makes it even harder to do mail on a phone!

... and whatever functionality is left does not work at all sometimes... cannot trust it any more. Sometimes it deletes email as asked, sometimes it does not... emails deleted reappear, emails moved to folders (with newly required effort) do not get moved, have to go back to native interfaces (like gmail, or other email services) to actually make things right... oh McIntosh, it is very messed up... !!! No bueno!

Indeed very frustrating and totally surprising that this does not get changed in the new version releases ... there has been no reaction from Apple so far to tell us the reason for this change ... very disappointing

See where it says “move to import”? I need it to say

“move to box that has been learned by the last few times you moved very similar mail and remember the location for mail like this” like it did before. It rarely remembers where the mail should be moved to.
