My boss often emails herself photos from her iPhone. These used to come through as attachments, but are now coming through embedded in the message body instead. I'm seeing quite a few people have found the same thing happening after updating to iOS 14.

 

The odd thing for is I'm sure my iPhone has always embedded them, because I've always found it annoying but just figured that's how it is. But i just looked at a couple of previous emails she'd sent herself, and the photos were definitely attachments.

 

Could you send photos as attachments from iOS prior to version 14? And if so, is there any way to get this working again in version 14?

 

Thanks

From what I've seen, this feature has been (rather unhelpfully) removed from iOS 14. Seen various people commenting negatively on it, but haven't seen a workaround other than using a different mail app, or complaining to Apple via the feedback page.

Apple seems to completely ignore feedback judging from all the people that have been complaining since September.

 

Changing to a different mail app isn't a great option, but the only other workaround I've found so far is to attach a non-image file to the same email - it then treats all the images as regular attachments as well. But this isn't convenient or easy as a workaround for most users either.

 

This is even dumber than when they decided to hide the auto brightness setting under accessibility.
