Mail is very slow downloading in iOS 18

My mail worked fast until IOS 18---now it takes forever to update on iPhone 14 pro max. When I say slow like 5 minutes to download, really terrible. I can go on my MacBook pro and boom it loads much faster. Told apple and was told no one else complained. Boo hoo---I am telling you the truth and this needs to addressed!!!

Same here, it takes so long to download the email.

i also got problems deleting my email. When I highlighted selected emails, then choose “ move” then I can’t select “ trash message” because it keeps taking me back to previous page.

Same problem here.

I was suspecting my email servers but it seems to be iOS the problem.

Since the iOS 18 update, my iPad takes forever to download email. I do not have that problem on my other Apple devices, which are not running that update.

I am begging Apple to please admit they have a problem and fix it.

This issue has made apple mail unusable on my iPad. Actively looking for a new email client and for customer service that Apple used to be known for. I use my iPad for business and this is costing time and money with no response or accountability from Apple. We pay a premium for Apple devices and services and expect a premium experience, not the blame the user run around.

Totaly agree.

now is Apple email app almost useless.

why don’t you let downloading mails if we want? It’s our decision how much space we will assign to local mail. Why should I wait for mail 5 minutes? This was 20 years ago (maybe).

I just tested MAIL APP and office365 web mail in Safari. I’ve got approximately 500 mails in 2 seconds with all attachments included and ready to open ASAP (office365 in Safari), and let’s say the same number of results in MAIL app, but no option to see mail content wit attachments for at least 3 minutes. USELESS.

I can just conclude that Apple would like us to move from native app to alternatives.

big disappointment for me.
