Thanks for reaching out, Hna2.

It sounds like you're trying to sync the same email account using the Mail app on two different devices. We can help.

It is important to remember that when you access, read, or delete your mail, these functions are handled by your email provider, and not necessarily Apple. The Mail app will fetch and send any changes back to the email provider, but the changes may not be immediately shown on all connected devices.

There are some settings that will impact how long it takes to fetch email (and refresh your folders) on an iPhone or iPad, especially if you are limiting background activity you can check out here: If you can't receive email on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.

Hope that helps!

Take care.
