iPhone email signature image not showing

Since updating to ios13, my email signature logo is not showing in my email.


It is saved in signatures, so the signature is coming across, but the logo is a blank box?

The shake to undo changes worked on the formatting for me but did not solve the image issue. Still comes up as a “null” box.

So you are saying that you have to manually add your signature logo every time? If yes, that's correct, I have no issue sending images or adding them. The issue is with the image we load into the signature setting embedding itself into a new email or a response to an HTML email.


This needs to be fixed.... I send sometimes 300 emails a day. Want my logo back and not have to do it manually!!!

Thanks for coming back to me Alex.


Saving the signature is fine; it's the company logo/image that is not saving.


I can cut and paste the signature including the logo, but when I send an email, the text of the signature is there, but the logo is not, just a white box with 'null' written inside.


When I check the signatures in the account, the logo has disappeared again.


This was not the case prior to update....

I was having the same issue with my iPad and iPhone. The way below is worked for me.


  1. Open a google docs on google drive
  2. Add your image in that file
  3. Adjust image and details on your signature
  4. Copy the final version of your signature
  5. Paste into your signature in mail settings iphone or ipad (At this stage i used universal clipboard hence i used Mac to create google docs file, but I suppose it will work same on iOS App of Google Docs)


Please feedback me to know if it worked for you or not.


Warm Regards;

Cengiz.

Nice picture, Heather.

#1 You should register "The 2 dots company" in your name and there you have it - the 2 dots actually serve a purpose ;-)

#2 On the serious side: The way you went about it is not quite the way I did, so let's see if this "recipe" works better for you, as it did for me:

  • Create a signature in Spark (you have).
  • Start a new mail in Spark. Do not send it.
  • In the new mail in Spark, click the screen and then "Select all", "Copy"
  • Discard the new mail in Spark.


Now go to the Settings -> Mail -> Signature, delete everything (a little cumbersome) and then paste

Directly from the Spark "new mail" - not using the native app at all, until you're done.


I believe copying from the native app removes some of the formatting.

You didn't read the message correctly. The problem is since upgrading to iOS 13, HTML email signatures do not work. As "signature-logo-not-showing-ios," stated, you can paste an html signature, complete with company logo and colored fonts or formatting, but it is not included in the signature in your message. Image is displayed as a box with "null" in it. Font is displayed as black only.

I was changing the email signature image and then i got the same problem. I tried many things, html signature, testing outlook copy paste etc etc.

What did fix it for me was using Spark the email app from app store. I created a signature and pasted in the image from my picture library. Then opened a new email and copy pasted the whole signature. Paste it in the original mail app signature.


Fixed my problems!

***Please Read Carefully***


there is obviously something that has broken in iOS 13 regarding HTML signatures. Here is the fix for your mail app.


  1. download Spark (you will be using this to create your signature only).
  2. copy and paste the target signature into the spark app. You may or may not need to shake to undo attribute changes.
  3. open a new email in spark and copy the signature that you just created from the new blank email.
  4. paste the signature from the spark email into the signature for your iOS mail app via settings.
  5. you can now delete spark and you should have a working signature. I literally just did this 5 minutes ago.

Hey there signature-logo-not-showing-ios,


Thanks for reaching out in Apple Support Communities. I understand your email signature is not showing after updating to iOS 13. I’ll be happy to help with this.


Go to Settings > Mail > Signature and edit your signature. Restart your iPhone and test by sending yourself an email to see if the signature shows.


If you have multiple accounts, see if this is just affecting one account or all. If it’s affecting just certain accounts, go to Settings > Mail > Account Name and delete the account from your iPhone. Restart and add the account back. See if this helps.

Best wishes.
