mail slow to update in iOS 13

They’re on top of the world. Why should they give a **** about making quality software? Your business means nothing, reiterate, nothing to them. They’ve proven that. They’re incapable of making a good email app. Jesus, one would think they could DO ONE THING RIGHT.

They’ve clearly shown they don’t give a f*clk. They simply don’t. Apple sez **** your business.

They don’t care.

As someone who has been concerned about this issue, I have to apologize for the tone of my previous posts; I was angry. I truly feel that many developers at Apple who actually use Apple products on an everyday basis care about this. I suspect that they are not given the time they need to debug software in the face of ever-increasing competition and unreasonable expectations—I have no doubt that they want to make quality software that lives up to traditional Apple standards.

The problems have not been entirely addressed. There is, though, a far shorter wait for email to appear in the inbox, from my experience on an iPhone 7. It’s down to 10 seconds or less. But I am still troubled by the inconsistency in badge counts between devices sharing the same accounts. They’re on the right track though—it’s clear they’ve worked hard on this version.

I will give them the benefit of the doubt that they’re working on it. I hope that by the final release the problem will be resolved.

I can only suppose that this is a management problem and not a developer problem. Apple needs to realize that people with important jobs to do rely on reliable push email; this is a critical regression that needs to be addressed. Like many others, I want to see a return to stability that the Apple I know and love has been known for.

A very diplomatic answer for a frustrating issue that seems to be taking ages to address. I paid over £1000 for my phone and I expect it to work correctly with apples own Apps. I can understand if it was 3rd party.

Ironically I get the notification sound straight away but like you say it takes a decade by today’s standards to show on the phone. Even when the phone says “updated Just now”. I’m going to switch to the outlook mail app and see if that works better.

I agree with you but if people continue buying their phones then Apple is not going to give a penny. I am planning on seeing a bit more of other phones like Galaxy! Less expensive and does basically everything that Iphone does. Making this story short, Apply has become the worst when it comes to fix the phone issues, do I am turning my back on them as well.

No problem. No longer unhappy. I’ve lost the will to live.

I’ve given up on Apple and moving to the dark side of Android.

Better yet, the other major phone brand is not made in China. For me, this is a most important factor in my buying decisions.

You’re not far off. Garbage software. I can’t believe Apple has not fixed this. What an insult to Wozniak. How a company could so sh*t upon his brilliance is beyond me. I’m disgusted—but let’s all pretend it’s never happened.

We need new leadership. Now.

I take it back. While matchez’s method improved things, it didn’t solve it. When entering the mail app, the new email won’t be showing. However it will load in its own and does it much faster than before. It’s still a step down from iOS 12 though.

Yeah I have an iPhone X and mine is up to the iOS 13 update and I don’t receive email straight away which is very frustrating when I have clients sending me emails so stock and I don’t get them till the end of the day it’s very bad for business

Me too. Both .2 and .3 the same. Delete mail and it takes a good few seconds to update app counter. Incoming mail is also sluggish. Not at all I would expect from Apple

Email very sluggish in new ios13.

Having the same issues. ios12 was so much better.

I am also having the same problem after upgrading all my iOS devices, this is a big issue. Apple when is this going to be resolved as this is also impacting business devices that have been upgraded.

Same for me. Takes ages for inbox to update after hearing the ping of a message arriving. Clearly a new IOS issue that needs resolving.

Also having the same issue, mail is now barley useable on my new 11 pro max. When is the fix coming? This is embarrassing Apple!

Just wanted to add my 2 cents : VERY annoying, this is a work tool and I am being slowed down by waiting for new emails to show up !? What "feature" has been added to cause this ?
