iOS 13 Mail - Move Message To Junk Folder

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. ;)

There is no simple fix to help adjust to this change. Daily hundreds of times a day it’s annoying waste of time trying to organize incoming emails into folders on iPhone with iOS 13.1.2. Adjusted swipe left and right menu but still huge mistake by Apple doing this with iOS 13. No one wants to just archive emails not organized. I use over 20 email addresses to help organize emails I send and receive then lots of folders for each email address. I do this so when I need to find something I can find it quickly because it was organized the first time and not just generically archived.

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

You have a delete at the bottom? My delete went into the reply button too. It’s the most inefficient annoying update I think they’ve ever made. I’m guessing it’s a way for them to increase their iCloud storage revenue.

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....

Bring back the move icon and put the **** trash icon back where it was!

My muscle memory knew the placement and now I have to think every time. This is so annoying!

Why change it when it isn’t better!!!

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.

I find that annoying! It is less efficient to move mail to the folder you want it in because it takes an extra step. Apple needs to restore the prior feature. We should be able to be more efficient with an update, not less. Does anyone know how to change it back to iOS 12?

I disagree with you, it was 1 tap before (it had its own predictive button). now it’s 2-3 taps. Further, the move icon is still now unreachable for left handers.

i hope you now understand the issue and perhaps could support those of us impacted by it.
