Recall email in mail app
To recall an email in the Mail app on your iPhone or iPad, you can follow these steps:
Method 1: Using the "Undo Send" feature
- Open the Mail app and go to the "Sent" folder.
- Find the email you want to recall and swipe left on it.
- Tap "Undo Send" (if available). This feature is only available for a short period after sending the email.
Method 2: Using the "Recall" feature
- Open the Mail app and go to the "Sent" folder.
- Find the email you want to recall and swipe left on it.
- Tap "More" (three dots) and then "Recall".
- Select the reason for recalling the email (e.g., "I sent it to the wrong person" or "I made a mistake").
- Tap "Recall" to send a recall request to the recipient.
Method 3: Using a third-party app
There are several third-party apps available that allow you to recall emails, such as:
- Email Recall (iOS)
- Recall Email (iOS)
- Revive Email (iOS)
These apps may require you to sign up for an account and may have limitations on the types of emails that can be recalled.
Important notes:
- The "Undo Send" feature is only available for a short period after sending the email, usually a few minutes.
- The "Recall" feature may not always work, as the recipient may have already read or deleted the email.
- Some email providers, such as Gmail, do not support email recall.
- Recall emails may not be supported by all email clients or servers.
