iOS 15 different mail notifications for different accounts

I completely agree with everything being said in this forum and I’m shocked Apple hasn’t resolved this via an update patch yet. Why would they take away a quality technology function??? This is very simple, certain email accounts I want banner notifications (like VIP) whereas other accounts I don’t (personal). The functionality was built in prior to iOS 15 and now it’s gone. Super frustrating Apple! Please restore that feature asap!

Hey Aaron,

Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We understand that you would like to have Lock Screen notifications for your personal account but not for your work account.

This is doable in iOS 15 although it does look a bit different. First, go to Settings > Notifications as mentioned in Change notification settings on iPhone. Then, find Mail > Customize Notifications. You'll see each account there and can change how notifications appear for each account on your iPhone.

Have a great day!

Ditto, dude….this has been drivin me fakin crazy!!

I don’t want to see 1,200 banners of spam mail but I’d like the option to scroll through them in my Notification Center if I **** well choose to! 🤣 But seriously, bring this feature back.

Hi,

What is even more frustrating: I used to have different kinds of alerts for my personal and work mail accounts (same as Aaron), and it worked perfectly well for me, even on iOS 15, until these Christmas holidays when I on purpose turned off the notifications for my work mail account.

So, as soon as I got back to work I suddenly realized the old notification style cannot be reverted. I checked every single setting. Indeed, it was so useful to receive job-related sound notifications with no alerts popping up on the lockscreen.

Still not sorted. And extremely frustrating. I have 3 work accounts and it’s a nightmare with notifications popping. Also when I am at work I tend to turn off personal email which is now popping up so I have to keep the phone away from desk or keep the screen down especially if I am in meetings. I don’t understand why Apple has this compulsion to fix things that ain’t broken?!

This is so frustrating, it is still not fixed. I don't want to mix my personal emails with work emails showing a long list on lock screen. It was much better earlier when i had more freedom to choose which email accounts show what types of notifications.

Pretty sad, hope it gets back!

This was still working for me until I got a new watch and synced it and all the sudden my mail notifications were completely reset and I got thrown into this nightmare world. I used to be able to use the badges to make sure I didn’t miss any urgent issues at work and now I have 14,034 unopened emails. I turned them off because it’s useless to me now. I guess Apple wants me to switch to the Outlook app?

Aaron,

Thanks for clarifying that. It may be best in this case to send feedback to Apple regarding this feature that you would like to see. You can do that from Feedback - iPhone.

Take care.

I’m facing exact same issue. I really need to have different alert settings for each account

You are not the only one for sure. This is the most frustrating part of iOS 15. I hope it returns soon.
