Apple’s latest Mail app redesign has left many users frustrated, with changes to the interface, navigation, and customization options. If you’re not a fan of the new layout, don’t worry—there are ways to roll back or tweak the experience.
Options to Get Rid of the New Apple Mail Redesign
1️⃣ Revert to the Old Version (If Possible)
- If you haven’t updated yet, avoid installing the latest macOS/iOS update until Apple refines the changes.
- If you’ve already updated, check if macOS Time Machine or an iCloud backup lets you restore the older version.
2️⃣ Adjust Settings for a Familiar Look
- Change the layout in Mail preferences to match the older style.
- Disable any new smart sorting features or adjust mailbox views.
3️⃣ Use an Alternative Email Client
- If the new design is too frustrating, consider switching to Spark, Outlook, or Thunderbird, which offer more customization.
4️⃣ Provide Feedback to Apple
- Apple often tweaks UI changes based on user feedback. Send your thoughts via Apple’s Feedback Assistant or on their forums.
While Apple pushes forward with its new Mail experience, not everyone has to accept it—especially with these workarounds available.
