I’m going to revisit Episode 34 “Smartphone Keyboard Tips” and add a couple tips for emailing in today’s TOD.
Scrolling to the top:
Back in episode 34, I told you when scrolling through an article or surfing on the web and you what to get back to the top. Just tap the top of the screen (status bar area) on your iPhone to quickly get back to the top of the page. This works with your inbox as well. Next time your scrolling through your inbox (only 57 more emails to get through) and want to get back to the top of the list, try tapping on the line between the black status bar and the grey inbox (Fig 1.01 RED arrow) to quickly scroll back to the top.
What are those icons:
If you have a arrow that curves back to the left, it means you replied to an email. If you forward the email, it will show an arrow that points to the right (Fig 1.01 Red Circle). Some of you asked, what is the box with the arrow over it (Fig 1.02 Blue arrow)? That’s an archive icon for imap accounts (Google). If you select this, it will put your email in an “All Mail” folder of your Google account. From Mailboxes, go to Accounts, Gmail and look for the “All Mail” folder (looks like the icon w/o the arrow). What to turn it off, go to your email setting, select Gmail and turn off “Archive Messages”.
Hope this tip helps,
