This wikiHow teaches you how to make the images and special formatting in emails load automatically on your iPhone.
Steps
-
1Open your iPhone’s Settings. It’s the app with a gray cog icon on one of your home screens. Check the Utilities folder if you don’t see it.
- If you only want to load images from one particular email message, just open that message in the Mail app and tap Load All Images.[1]
- By default, the iPhone is set up to automatically load images in email. You won’t have to do this if you haven’t disabled that feature.
-
2Scroll down and tap Mail. It’s in the fifth group of settings.Advertisement
-
3Slide the “Load Remote Images” switch to the On position. This ensures that messages in the Mail app will appear as the sender intended, complete with embedded pictures, fonts, and other special formatting.
- Automatically-loading images can use a lot of data. If you don’t have an unlimited data plan, consider turning off cellular data for the Mail app.
- If you’re on a slow internet connection, large images may take several moments to appear.

Warnings
- People sometimes include images in email to track when (or if) recipients open the message. If you allow images to load automatically, use caution when opening messages from senders you don’t trust.[2]⧼thumbs_response⧽
