Quick note: In iOS 14.0, whenever your iPhone reboots, it'll reset your default mail app to Apple Mail. Best of all, email links you open from your contacts list or a web browser will now open up in your new default browser. Now, you can switch Mail to something like Microsoft Outlook or Spark Mail, and it's simple to do. That all changes now.Īpple now lets you choose a third-party mail app as your default, an unprecedented move when you think about Apple's ecosystem before iOS 14, where everything favored its own apps and services above all else. Since the very first iPhone OS 1 (yes, before it was even 'iOS'), we've been stuck with Apple Mail as the default emailing app. One of the most significant changes in iOS 14 is something we've wanted for a very long time, and it will change the way you use your iPhone.
