Apple Mail
What it is
Apple Mail is a free app for sending, receiving, and managing email accounts in one place. It supports accounts from iCloud, Gmail, Exchange, Yahoo, Outlook, and other providers, with a unified inbox and scheduled sending. Messages can be sorted into Primary, Transactions, Updates, and Promotions, and search can find them by sender, recipient, or subject. Mail includes tools for blocking specific people or groups and reducing junk mail. Mail Privacy Protection hides your IP address from senders and prevents them from seeing whether you opened an email. You can send attachments, view and save them, delete them, or mark them up; Mail Drop sends large attachments from any account through iCloud. On macOS 27, Apple Intelligence Writing Tools can summarize selected text, proofread it, and suggest wording and tone. Availability varies by language and region, and usage limits may apply. The listed platforms are iOS and macOS. The App Store lists iPhone, iPad, Apple Vision, and Apple Watch, while the supplied user guide is for Mac. The App Store says the app requires iOS 10.0 or later.
