I’ve been having major issues with Mail, and each beta get slightly worse in some areas and “ok” in other areas. I just now tried deleting the mail app, rebooted, reinstalled Mail from the App Store and made active all of my mail accounts (6), and now I’m stuck with the “No Sender / No Subject” problem where every single email (ALL emails for all accounts in all folders) is showing that for the sender/subject. I just went thru after that and tried Edison Mail & Spark, and I’m kinda meh about them.
It’s great! I’m still kind of disappointed that the full Peek and Pop is gone though. I noticed that it seems to have both Force Touch and Haptic Touch. If you just hold without pressure it’ll still do the same as force touch, albeit far slower.
My emails (outlook.com and MS Office 365 Business Premium Exchange) have both just stopped working on my iPad and IPhone (latest dev beta). I’ve tried 3G, 4G and WLAN and everything I click on just says loading with the whirling icon. Nothing ever progresses. Coincidence?
Edit: just checked the Outlook app and all is good. Definitely something very odd with the Apple app. Why would it stop working at the same time on two different devices? What are they up to??
I am all about privacy, and normally cite it as a reason to stay within 1st party solutions when possible. That’s why my next statement makes me a hypocrite. I use Spark email, which if I am being honest, comes with some serious privacy concerns. I love spark, I really love spark, but because of my usual concern for privacy I will give Apple mail another go on iOS 13
Spark is the only one I dont really trust. Someone like say an Outlook/Microsoft is going to be big news and subject to the US government if anything funny goes on. And Outlook exists to keep people in the 365/outlook platform who already pay for it on subscription anyway. They dont need to make revenue from the app/data.
Readdle is in Ukraine; regardless if the servers (probably AWS) are in the US. I have no idea what their laws and regulations are there to penalize companies- if any.
Their privacy policy has also been a bit vague/shifty; better now, but questionable at times. Not saying they are good or bad, I have no evidence either way, just something irks me about them.
And considering PDFExpert just went subscription at $50/year, that uses none of their server resources even, I just wonder how long before Spark goes subscription honestly since it does take their server resources. The few paying for teams at a few bucks a month can't possibly long term support the free/individual users which my guess are the vast vast majority of users
I also just find the app WAY too cartoony looking aesthetically.

Not sure if it's been mentioned already, but with Catalina Beta 7 you can use NFC to initiate a wifi connection via NFC tag now. Equipment used: iPhone X and Sony A9 camera. Connection can be initiated through Sony Imaging Edge mobile software. I remember trying with Beta 6 and no go. Seems to now work with Beta 7. Once connection is initiated, photos can be transferred wirelessly from the camera to the the Sony Imaging Edge software on the iPhone.
It is frustrating that the Mail app still isn’t working properly. I don’t have the feeling that it has improved much over the years. I might have to start using the Gmail app 100% of the time.
Been playing around with the Apple Keyboard - XS Max PB6.
Needs some serious work with spell checking. I am getting a rash of smaller words (3-5 lettes) where it corrects these to an incorrect word (ex: fel to tell - was supposed to be feel) or just replacing the word after the fact (ex: you with toy - Eat with East). Using it in Email, Message, and Notes. Had it do this on the Amazon webite in Safari. Kept “correcting” product names in search.
Have found no way to make this function learn. Back to GBoard soon ...

I gave up on the Mail app a long time ago since I had issues with exchange so I started to use their respective app like Outlook, Gmail and so forth but kept Mail for iCloud email.
The last years the final releases were not much better than the betas. I think the iOS 13 final will be a disaster. Mail app broken, keyboard is not working well, iPadOS 13 is a mess with a lot of lags, bugs, freezes and crashes.
I don’t agree. Sure, Mail has its problems, but over all, DB7/PB6 is pretty solid. Many things are even better/faster by now than iOS 12, like Face ID and launching apps. We have at least two or three beta versions ahead of us before final release so I’d say Apple is on track for a real solid release of iOS 13. Too bad though that many good features was dropped and saved for future updates.
Does the older beta threads get deleted or moved? For the life of me i cannot seem to find the thread for iOS /iPad OS 13 beta 6, the most current public beta?
USB C to SD adapter stopped working for me, and troubleshooting with a new adapter has made me believe its faulty software (Tried a new adapter at the store, same error, SD card in other devices work, and it also works with my Lighting to SD card adapter in iOS beta 13.6) lthough it had been working in all past betas.

I think I have a weird one regarding mail. I don't believe I've seen this one reported before but if so, kindly correct me.
I'll see notification that I have new mail. I check the app, and the amount of new messages is far less than what the notification dot states. To see the rest of the new mail, I have to filter by Unread. In addition, sometimes I have to switch between the two to actually get a message marked as read.

Yep seen that. The email app, whist better than B6 for me, is still a complete abortion!
