Hi yorshalev,

I want to help you answer these questions on your accounts.

For the first question, Social account logins have been removed with iOS 11.

For your Mail app, you can configure how often it checks for Mail under your account settings. Go to Settings > Accounts & Passwords > Fetch New Data. You can select Manually to have it not download email, and you'll have to refresh manually.

Let me know if that helps

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

There is an app called FaceCon Dialer (free app 👍-1F3FC;). I haven’t used it personally, but it is supposed to remedy the contact photo update via Social Media login issue. Good luck!

Hi

Thanks for your reply.

In regards to the mail issue thank you very much.

In regards to the syncing Facebook pictures to my contact I understand that in iOS11 Apple removed the Social Account Logins.

I lost all pictures of my contacts upon upgrading to the iOS11.

What can you suggest me in order to have again pictures in my contacts from the Facebook.

May be any good application that can do the work for me.

Thanks
