iOS 13 Mail - Move Message To Junk Folder

In iOS 12 I could easily move a message in Mail to junk with a couple of taps.


In iOS 13 I now have to press the reply button on the bottom right of the screen, scroll down the options so that 'Move to Junk' is displayed, then tap again to move it.


Only an additional 'scroll' I know, but is there any way I can change settings to make this easier?

Had the same problem and just found out how to move message.

in an email you want to move to junk (or any other folder for that matter), just do a long press on the “reply” arrow. It will bring some options to you, including “move message”.

Agree completely. And the UI (screen) estate is... now wasted (sic!). This is a loss of functionality and in commercial products supporting business it is not tolerated. ... wait... it is a commercial product I paid for... and I have to live with it... new brave world :-(


I cannot imagine the reasoning for this regression, so am very interested in knowing why on earth?


Similar notion in AppStore, your "Update all" applications now "nicely" *hidden*! Some new coolaid served at Apple now to force users to go through more steps to get done what need?

This is an absolute garbage change to the iOS mail client. Why make it harder to file messages - what was a tap, swipe, tap is now, at best, swipe, tap, swipe, tap - but the default is tap, swipe, tap, swipe, tap. Adding 2 more motions is pointless, and makes managing a busy inbox difficult. I guess it's time to download Outlook for iOS.
