-Open the mail app on your iphone

-Tap the More icon (three dots) in the upper-right hand corner.

-Select "list view" to switch back to the old format.


For additional customization, you can also adjust the "mail" notification badge count:

1- open the "settings" app on your iphone

2-go the the "mail" settings

3-scroll down to "show contact photos" and turn it off to remove icons from your inbox.


~ these maneuvers should help you get back to the familiar "mail" app layout you used to have.

Amazing, that you think because new features are not what you want that someone wasn’t thinking? Perhaps they were thinking of other user’s needs, not yours specifically. But what about the new features do you not want to use?


And no, you can’t go back, but you can customize the mail app.
