Anyone else, attachments in emails?

[Peter Franks]

Since iOS18, Mail is abysmal, emails can take forever to load in the app, on iPhone and iPad.
When I have attachments, forget it. I can't even be bothered to wait for them. I have to open and close app several times and even then they've not downloaded. Never ever had this problem prior to 18, and stupidly believed it would be addressed in 18.0.1. It's a real problem when you get a load of work emails with attachments, but even body of mail can also take time on some. Also the badge icons shows double the number of actual emails. Will they ever fix it? 'Suggestions' was never fixed, since it was introduced I've had it turned off, and I still regularly get them anyway.

I never had that problem but I wasn’t on 18 for long as I tend to run the betas.

Are you back to 17?
It's infuriating because I can't work remotely now

No I’m on 18.1. Sorry I can’t remember what the number is but it’s the latest developer beta. I’m also not experiencing the problem on this version if that helps.

Hopefully, but after these views and nobody experiencing the same issue, I won't hold my breath. Thanks

Yes, same problem on iPad Air 5, have to close and open a few times and still wait. Just awful, exactly same as iPhone problem

Same same. iOS 18.0.1 on 15 Pro Max. Imap accounts.

Apple‘s performance in regard to QC has been really abysmal recently.

I know, and battery wise, people always moan about it and say it rights itself eventually, and the old adage of 'it's because it's new and you're messing with it, and it's making so many changes' etc etc, used to apply, but it's not the case this time, It's never righted itself and the iPhone14 is drowning in battery use by lunchtime, a month after the release, and '18.01' has done nothing to improve any of the problems. I think it's done the most damage out of any iOS release I can ever remember.

The lifesaver part of the iPhone was being able to work remotely, but now I have to be at a desk as it's not working properly for emails and attachments.

I have a Nothing 2a Plus as an additional work phone and it’s really just a backup. But even with FairEmail loading every email when it arrives on the server (IMAP IDLE) it barely needs a charge twice a week… This is the „fragmented“ Android system. Hard to believe. Apple better do their homework. The grass on the other side is also pretty green.

I've only just noticed this last week that iOS 18 has also broken IMAP in a big way.

My MBP, iPad and iPhone, ALWAYS used to sync up, inbox, deleted, sent folders all showed the same.

NOW.... it's not replicating any of the 3. I have some on phone, some on iPad, and some on Mac.
Even deleting emals on MBP doesn't follow on the iOS18 products.
Every other day iOS18 makes work life ridiculously impossible.

Has anyone solved how and why it's done so much damage, and why didn't 18.01 even touch the sides to sort it?
Fed up with this, It used to make work life easier, not harder.
