iPad with 15.3.1 iOS update load e-mails very slowly

Well, so far so good!

My mail seems to be loading normally so far……. Here is what I had to do- First, I deleted the Mail App. I restarted my iPad. I turned on each of my e- mail accounts and waited for them to load. I noticed that a number of e-mails loaded with No Subject, but if I opened them the contents were there. Some loaded with No Subject, and No Sender. Again, if I opened them, the content was there. This was pretty frustrating AND the Mail App was still loading extremely slow just like before. This was worse than before, so I “bit the bullet” and decided to completely wipe the iPad. I keep my iPad backed up every day, so I knew I could do a complete backup after erasing everything.

So far so good. I got my e-mails back with correct subjects and senders. The Mail App seems to be loading normally as well.

This has been normal for a full day so far. But alas, I did lose all my Wordle stats, but I keep a record in my Notes App, so I am okay with this small inconvenience…..

Hope this helps others.

I talked to Apple support because I was having this problem and they told me to delete the original email app and reinstall a new one from the App Store. Worked perfectly. Everything is working as it should.

Having trouble with slow loading email. I deleted the mail app, went to App Store and reloaded the mail app. Going back to sign on it asks which mail account. iCloud, Microsoft exchange, Google, yahoo, aol, outlook. Which do I choose?

It did not work for me either. So I went a different route—. See below.

My mail seems to be loading normally so far…… 3 days and counting.

I have the same issue with my iPad on OS 15.5. Some times the Mail app launches just fine, others it boots up but hangs for 30-45 seconds before loading the actual emails. No problems on my laptop nor iPhone. Very frustrating.

I’ve deleted my email accounts & reinstalled and that doesn’t work. I’ve deleted and reinstalled the Mail App twice and that doesn’t work. I was on the phone for over two hours the other day with Apple Support and got disconnected. They had my number from the night before when they scheduled to call me the next day. I never got a call back, nor did I even attempt to call them…waste of time.

! I told her about the comments here and she reviewed them saying she hadn’t heard of the issues before! She was going to have me restore my iPad through my computer as it is supposed to install all updates before I restore from my backup. I’ve never had time to try it yet, but I’m sure sick of dealing with this! Sure wish Apple would fix this before they issue all of the new stuff they announced today!

I now hate my iPad Pro..it loads Apple mail so slowly where as a main application I use, this device is pretty much useless to me now. Apple..please stop the goofy conferences and fix these software messes! Thanks.

If you didn’t do it this way, try it. Delete the mail app. Reboot the phone or ipad. Reinstall the app.

if you don’t reboot in between it doesn’t clear memory. I did that and all my mail accounts have worked since early last week.

And probably no point in addressing Apple, they don’t read these. If you call them and point them at this you’d think it would mean something though!

I did do it this way twice. Still not working correctly. It will now let me read and access 2-3 emails before going back to blank screen and starting all over again😏😡

She did tell me she’d discuss it with her supervisors and they would be in touch with “the powers that be” if it didn’t work after restoring it. I guess they won’t know since she never got back with me😗

I, too, am experiencing this annoying bug with opening my emails on my iPad Pro. While one is a little relieved to see others having to deal with this (so not being the only user on the planet going slowly mad trying to view one’s mail) the number of us suffering must surely prompt Apple to fix this, and fix this fast. I don’t use emails for work - just family stuff, hobbies, entertainment and general rubbish - and I’m frustrated, so you unfortunates who need this app for your businesses, well, I feel for you, I really do. Updates are supposed to fix things, not cause worse problems!!

Yesterday I tried deleting the mail app, then reinstalling. I had done this 2 weeks ago and it did not work then. But I figured “ What the ****!” With other users claiming success doing this. I also deleted all the emails which had reloaded with No Sender and No Subject. Those I needed to keep I either printed or forwarded to myself. That seemed to do the trick. Working fine now. Emails loading normally. Fingers crossed.

This is very poor, clearly linked to an upload. How long does it take for a company like apple to sort this out. It is very frustrating and apparently a very common problem.

it’s getting on my pip, get to the core of the matter, I’m sure my Granny Smith could do better.

I deleted the mail app, turned my iPad off and on, reloaded the mail app, added back 6 of my 7 email accounts, the last one ICloud I cannot get to show! So far my main hotmail account which was the one which was not loading seems ok. Fingers crossed it stays that way.

just need to get iCloud mail showing on the mail app, any suggestions?

The only thing I haven’t done yet is wipe out my iPad and start all over…nothing else suggested has worked!

Now I’ve got a new issue with my mail. If I’m looking at something on the internet and would like to share it, I can’t. When I choose to email it to someone, a blank screen pops up and the email never opens to be able to send it. And, most times after a few seconds, the whole thing closes out and goes away. Anyone else have this problem? I can send it via a text, but not email.

I’m so fed up with Apple! They know this is going on and have done nothing about it😡

My wife and I started experiencing these problem months ago with update 15 but only on our iPad Mini 4 & 5. After looking at a browser link, and returning to email, you get a blank screen and have to wait awhile for it to reload. It takes longer when you close and reopen the email app. Extremely frustrating. When is fix coming out?
