IsThere A Setting

A few months ago I changed the default email application. I changed from "mail" to "Airmail 3"


As a consequence I encounter the following message when trying to open send an email from a address in my 'contacts'. ie: 'Restore "Mail", you followed link that requires the app "Mail' which is no longer on your iphone. you can restore it from the app store"


I don't want to restore "Mail" so I am wondering if there is a work around ?


Thanks

iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 8.1.3

Hi. Unfortunately, in iOS you can't make a 3rd party app a default app.

If you want to use just it, you have to compose an email from there. If you click an email address on the web or from a message, you need a default Mail app to compose a message this way.
