If you are setting up a new iPhone or switching to a different email account, it’s important to connect the Mail app to the right email address.
If you recently got a new iPhone or a new email address, connecting your email account to your phone is probably a top priority. Apple makes this process as painless as possible, but it’s still important to know where to go so you can link your account when you have a couple of spare minutes. Here’s everything you need to know about adding your email, either automatically or manually. Apple makes it easy to set up email by connecting to a popular provider via the settings. The key is that this process only works with major email platforms like Google, iCloud, Microsoft Exchange, and Yahoo, which can also integrate other information like calendar events with your phone. Unless you use a smaller, lesser-known email client, this is the best place to begin. Step 1: Make sure your iPhone is on and connected to the internet before you begin. Start at the home screen, and select the Settings app to begin. Step 2: In Settings, scroll down until you see the option for Passwords & Accounts with the key logo. Select this. On the next screen, you will be able to see any connected accounts you may already have (iCloud, for example, may already be there based on how you set up your iPhone). Choose Add Account to begin the process of adding your email.
