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?

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!

Here are steps that work for me using Spark desktop and mobile.

  1. Create a new signature in Spark desktop, drag the logo into the signature
  2. Host this logo, on Google drive, dropbox (too slow to load), or any hosting servers even yours if you have one,
  3. Get the shared link, and replace the local image in the HTML code with your shared link
  4. Wait until the desktop spark syncs with your iPhone spark app
  5. Open spark app, copy and paste it into mail signature in the email application on your iPhone


Notes:

When you try to send an email using your mail application on iPhone you will not be able to see the logo, only the recipients will. Also if you want to test email to desktop computer or your friend's iPhone. Your iPhone will not show the logo.

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.

Heather and I tested yesterday, and her sig file didn't appear once in our exchange. Heather, thanks for the exchange back and forth.


The reason I wanted to test that with her is because often times peeps attach a file to a local directory to their computer, and they will see it come through every time like its works, but that may be result from being able to locate the file on her local directory


In the example above, Mw3boy68 suggests sending a test to yourself on the same email (which may read your local directory file and display like its working) or by sending to another email on a different domain (if it's going to and from your personal network, the file may still be recognized).


If ya'll are going to test, test with a friend outside your organization with a few exchanges back and forth. The question is, do THEY still see your email logo/sig file image throughout the correspondence, and NOT as an attachment.


Good luck all.

Hi There!,

Not sure if you are still experiencing problems with the image I went through many of them but finally achieve the goal.

You already open the html file in your browser and the image is showed? if not and you are using dropbox to link it you have to make a tiny change in the url, here it is a detaill explanation:

After being sure about the url, the shake thing worked for me.


Hope this help :)

I can remember having a slightly similar issue prior to using the spark method, I ended up deleing all the information in my iPhone signatures, all the i formation for every signature so thx signature boxes are completely blank, I then went of the signature settings, re-booted my phone and started the operation for all signatures from scratch, I have created a total of 7 different signatures for different email addresses using this method, please try this first, good luck, wish I could help more.

Guys I found a work around for it, it is not the best of the best but it works, you can barely noticed it but something is something. All you have to do is add a dot at the beginning or at the very last of your image, something that shows next to signature when you get out from it, otherwise it will not recognize that something is in there, if anybody has questions let me know so I can write step by step on how to

There is an easy way to fix the issue. Save your image to jpg or something and into the file folder. Convert that image to html, so your file will be xxx.html. Search google or go to https://html.imageonline.co/ to convert the image. Save the converted file to file folder. Then go the that converted file on the file folder, long pressed it to copy and paste it in the signature box. That it, it work for me.

what website do we go to create an html signature ?

None will work anyway. Official there is no support for logo with iOS Mail (no official documentation for it). Everything you have read here about it and tried are unofficial and undocumented workarounds that do not work as intended.


If you want to have logo signature with your outgoing emails, then you are better of to talk to your IT /Email Server guys about adding signature automatically to every email that goes through select SMTP server.

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.
