How to change default email address on mail app

I have two email accounts linked to my iPhone and I need to keep both of them but when I send an email, it only gives me the option to send it from one of the addresses.

I have searched and lots say go to settings, the mail app then default address but that is not there anymore so I wondered if there’s a different way to do it.


thank you!

iPhone 11, iOS 15

Are both e-mail accounts from the same provider?

I mean either account @icloud.com, or @outlook.com, or @gmail.com.

If so, the Default account option is missing.

Then you always have to switch from one account or the other account from which you want to send an email.
