After updating to ios 11 I notice that the mail app no longer has the unsubscribe feature. Is there a way to get it back since it was just added in ios 10?
iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 11
iOS 10 added a feature where your inbox email was scanned for unsubscribe-links and when a link was found you could unsubscribe with a single click at the top of the mail (not in the mail body). This feature seems to be removed.
iOS 11 still has that feature, but perhaps the mail you received is not recognized as being sent to a mailing list.
Not a single one of the emails in my mail app has the unsubscribe button. I am able to use the messages unsubscribe option at the bottom of these emails but no button at the top.
Bulk mail providers are required by law (at least in the US) to have an unsubscribe link in the body of the email. If it doesn't it is most certainly spam. And you should not use the unsubscribe feature if it really is spam; that just confirms that your email address is valid, and it will increase the amount of spam you get.
It clearly is for some and isn’t for others. On my wife SE with the most recent software update she still has unsubscribe links at the top of most of her mail. On my 6s, with the latest OS I have NO UNSUBSCRIBE LINKs on any mail. I have gmail, yahoo, Comcast, Exchange accounts. She only has Comcast and yahoo. I know where to look for the links, I’m a pretty savvy iPhone user having owned every other generation since it’s release in ‘07. It’s something in their code I’m certain. Btw, I have already deleted the mail app and reinstalled it to no avail.
No, it doesn’t exist anymore and I don’t know why they removed it. Was a good feature. None of my mail on any of my 4 accounts are showing the link.
No it isn't. Again, I have received three emails from mailing lists just this morning with the unsubscribe link at the top of the email all present and correct.
Same thing for me. I've been searching for someone who was experiencing the same thing and this is the first I've seen some feedback. Thought this situation was unique to a setting on my phone, but now I know it isn't. I haven't gotten one "unsubscribe" link in my emails since ios 11. And... I know some of those emails would have been flagged before. They are obvious spam.
I noticed the exact same thing and it's irritating! I too have to hunt through the email to find the sender's unsubscribe link and sometimes they don't even have one. I wish Apple hadn't removed this feature. It was just added in iOS 10 recently and it's already gone. Why? I hope Apple reads these forums and makes some changes that the USERS want and not what Apple THINKS we want!!
Same here. Plenty of emails with the link before, and now zero after ios11. Has there been any progress on this?
It’s still exist but it sends the request to outbox in the outbox never managed to send it out. Example attached. I’m looking for a fix ,/ anyone ?
Yes it does. I have several examples in emails received just in the last few days.
Totally untrue. I USED to get the unsubscribe option in non-Apple emails and now those EXACT same emails from the same senders have NO unsubscribe link.
This is what my email shows for a typical subscription. The unsubscribe link is sent by the same company that sent the original email.
Did you ever find a solution to this? The same thing is happening to me
Unsubscribe option ios11
