For iPhone, many applications have been developed for mailing. And one of the most popular is Mail. For example, from all available, only the standard has support for Handoff, which makes it possible to start typing a message on an iPhone, and complete on Ipad or Mac. In addition, with the release of iOS 8 there have been many new features from Mail. Let's talk about the most interesting of them.

You can now manage letters using swipes that previously began to be used in Mailbox. In iOS 8, Apple also made such a function.

To enable such a control, open mail, addresses and calendars settings, and then adjust smack. Here you can change the actions that will be performed when swipe left or right in writing.
