Aphasia and struggling with email.

Hi. I have primary progressive aphasia and FTD. I'm struggling coping with my email and finding important emails that i need to see. It's overwhelming me. Is there some mail app that could assist me.

Hi, I am no expert in this area, just an Apple user, like yourself.

Perhaps you have someone to help you look through some of the ideas below.


  • Seems it is important that you find the right app for your particular needs.


  • An app that suits one person may be quite frustrating for another.


  • If you work with a Speech and Language professional, they may recommend certain apps or iPad features.

Eg: ✽ Would it help or hinder you ... to have the emails read aloud to you ... instead of reading on screen


✽ Would recording audio messages to send as replies be more helpful or frustrating for you, than typing.

However, if you need to find your own way, it is not easy to guess which features are useful for you.


✽. Step-by-step guidance to: Check your email in Mail on iPad - Apple Support

and

Send email in Mail on iPad - Apple Support

or

✽ If you use Siri, that may be a more useful way for you to deal with your email messages:

✽ You can limit your iPad to using one app (eg: Mail app) to help simplify things whenever you want:

✽ Else: Apple has a great many Accessibility features available for use on your iPad:

All the best :-)
