1. Activate the mobile data of the Mail app
If you are trying to get your emails while you are disconnected from the WiFi network and mobile data, it is clear that you will not be able to update it. If your mobile data is on but the Mail app is still offline, check that the mobile data of the app is activated correctly. Just do the following:
- Open the app Settings from your iPhone.
- Go down until you get to the app Mail on the list.
- If it is deactivated, activate the option ‘Mobile data‘that appears under the section’ Allow Mail to access’.
2. Delete and add the Mail account one more time
If you have multiple email accounts added to your Mail app on the iPhone or iPad and only one of them is causing problems, then try deleting said account and adding it again. Maybe I can solve the problem.
To do it, just follow these steps:
- Open the app Settings from your iPhone or iPad.
- Enter a Mail.
- Choose ‘Accounts‘.

- On this screen, touch the bottom where it says’Delete account‘.
Now, once you have deleted the account, you just have to tap on ‘Add account‘and see if this has solved your email problems on your iPhone or iPad.
3. Check the update frequency of Mail on your iPhone
If the emails are reaching you at the wrong time or you only get news when you check manually, maybe there is a problem with how often the Mail app on your iPhone or iPad is updated. If you want to fix it, do the following:
- Go into Settings.
- Go to the Mail option.
- Tap on Accounts.
- Here, tap on ‘Get data’.
- Set the refresh rate to ‘Push’ for each of the accounts. This will make the Mail app notify you as soon as you receive a new email on your iPhone or iPad.
Ready. Yes indeed, the ‘Push’ option will not be available for Gmail accounts, which means that you will have to select ‘Get’ instead of this first option.
