Question

In the iOS 9.2 mail app, the "Load All Images" button is at the bottom of messages

In the latest mail app, the "Load All Images" link has been moved to the bottom of each message...so I have to scroll to the bottom to get to it. Since I used that functionality a lot, you've *really* put a crimp in my use of email.

The only other two options are 1) Don't load images at all, or 2) Load all images in all messages. Neither of these is acceptable.

Android has the right solution...when you've clicked on "Load images", it then asks "Always allow all images for this user?" Fantastic! This is *amazing*, as the emails that I want get images witihout bothering me, and the emails that I don't know about still give me a chance to think about it. *That's* good user-centric design.

Seriously, Apple? Who comes up with these ideas? I thought you guys were about /good/ design and UI decisions...not /arbitrary/ design and UI decisions changing things just to change things.

Anyone know how to tell Mail to put the link up at the top of the messages (where it belongs) again?

You are not talking to Apple right now, it's a user to user forum. We're not responsible for the changes Apple implements.

Uh...yeah. I'm a little mystified at your answer. I didn't say or imply that you had written this code.

I wanted to 1) whinge a bit about what a stupid decision it was for Apple to have moved that button the way they have, and then 2) ask if anyone here knew a way to put it back where it belongs.
