cannot add mail to homescreen on iphone

Have not used MAIL for a while and when I try to add it to my homescreen there is no option available.

Below is the screenshot of what happens when I "hold" on the app icon! Any ideas please?

Mail not opening to Inbox This issue has been driving me crazy since I switched from Microsoft to Apple. I was shocked that there is no way to configure the opening screen. I’m now using an iPhone 13 ProMax so I don’t have the home button. After I read an email I don’t see a way to actually close the message so I just click on the Inbox then close the app by swiping part way up then swiping the app again. In the case of the mail app, it will then open to the last read email instead of the inbox. After a week or so opening mail by pressing and holding the mail icon and picking the inbox, it will finally open to the inbox by simply tapping the mail icon. Poor app design. Very poor.

Apple Maill on iPhone 14 Pro / iOS 17.0.1 Apple Maill on iPhone 14 Pro / iOS 17.0.1 When I search in Apple Mail I get a list of results but when I want to click on one of the results / e-mails that were found, the screen is only white and the mail does not open (screenshot attached). Does anyone have an idea how I can change that so I can open / read a mail directly from the search results in Apple Mail on my iPhone? Thank you!

Try and find it in your App Library instead of in your productivity list and hold it again and see if there is any add to homescreen there
