Since I updated to IOS 14, every day I’ve been asked to re enter an emails password. I have 6 emails on my phone and it’s going through each one. Nothing about the emails have changed, the password it was using is still the same password.
when I don’t re enter the email I get spammed with the error alert and it makes my phone completely unusable. How do I stop this?
iPhone 11, iOS 14
Hi there Beevie,
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you’re being prompted to put in your email password repeatedly. We’ll be happy to help.
If you log into your email provider’s website using a web browser, like Safari, is your password accepted? Have you tried removing that account and adding it back? If not, start there.
Since you mentioned the issue starting after updating to iOS 14, you can also back up your data and update to the latest version of iOS 14, using these steps: Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. We hope this helps.
Best regards.

Hi Beevie,
Thanks for giving that a try. If removing them and adding them back didn't resolve the issue, make sure iOS is fully up to date. If the issue continues after updating, use the following link to reach out for further assistance: Contact Apple Support.
Yes. I can still log into my emails through normal routes, nothing about the accounts have changed.
I did deleted and add the emails back onto mail, it temporarily fixed it, it’s back to circling through the accounts and asking for the passwords again.
I keep being asked to re enter email password
