On both iPhone 11 pro and iPad 11“, if I delete an email by tapping the trashcan icon while viewing the email (as opposed to swiping a message header to delete) my screen kinda blinks/ flashes underneath the email. Not the best description I realize...

Anyone else experience this?
 
On my iPhone 11 Pro Max, deleting an email this way makes the screen blink when it shows the next mail. Not sure if it’s the same thing you’re experiencing or if that’s just from the next email loading in.
 
Yes, I have a flash/blinking on my screen as well. For what it's worth, I also have to press twice to delete every time. Super annoying.

I wouldn’t call that a “blink”.
It seems to be the underneath mail being redrawed two times.

Ok, anyone else seeing the “mail below redrawing twice”, also known in some parts of the world as a blink?

Is it supposed to be funny ?
A screen blink is THE SCREEN itself blinking.
This is a totally different scenario.
Only the mail below is “blinking “, if you like the term so much.

I can definitely see that.

I no longer have to press twice to delete an email. However, on my iPhone I have to press the down arrow twice when I’ve finished reading a new email to go to the next email (if I don’t want to delete the email at that time).

I understand what you meant, and yep I see the same behaviour.

I have the same issue and was wondering if you found a fix? Thanks.

Add me to the list. My iPhone 11 Pro Max is doing the same. I find it that strong when deleting mail it’s as if the flash has just gone off
Not: I know it’s not... more likely a screen redraw sync.
Hope it gets fixed as it’s bloody annoying.
 
Correct same situation here.
First noticed around after updated to iOS 13.2. Glitch/redraw/re render when deleting mails.
Tried singing off from mail account, offloading app, force restart device and adding everything back again. No success.
Been using third party email client in the mean time, but to be honest I do miss using apple stock mail app.

Update: after installing iOS 13.4 hoping the glitch got fix, sadly to report still there.

Cheers
