               The Mail app gets some valuable enhancements with iOS 16. One
of the headlining features is the ability to schedule emails to be sent at a
specific time.

Follow along for a hands-on look at how it works to Send Later with Mail on
iPhone.

 

Apple's Mail app has gotten a mix of new features with iOS 16. Several of
the major ones are the option to Send Later, Remind Later, and even unsend
an email if you act quickly enough.

Below we'll focus on how it works to Send Later with Mail on iPhone.

 

Send Later with Mail: How scheduled email works in iOS 16

 

1. Running iOS 16 on iPhone, open the Mail app 

2. Draft a new email 

3. After writing your email, long-press the send button  (blue up arrow) 

4. Now you can choose to send with one of two preset times or pick Send
Later  to use a custom time 

5. Tap Done  to set your email to Send Later 

6. Repeat to schedule more emails 

7. Head to the main Mail app screen to see all of your emails set to Send
Later 

 

Important: Apple notes you'll need to keep your "device online to ensure
email delivery" during the scheduled time.

 

Here's how the Send Later with Mail feature looks in iOS 16 along with some
more details:

 

Back on the main Mail screen, you'll see a new Send Later location. Tap it
to see all of your scheduled emails.

You can swipe from right to left to delete one or tap on one and choose Edit
to change the scheduled send time.
