How to set up your email account automatically

• Mail App
• Yahoo Mail App For Iphone

Dec 24, 2019  It's relatively simple to reset your Gmail passcode from an iPhone or iPad, whether it's linked to the Apple Mail app, or not. To begin: Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad. Scroll down, then tap Passwords & Accounts. Tap Website & App Passwords. Enter your iPhone's passcode, or verify your identity with Face or Touch ID.

If you use an email provider like iCloud, Google, or Yahoo, Mail can automatically set up your email account with just your email address and password. Here's how:

1. Go to Settings > Passwords & Accounts.
2. Tap Add Account, then select your email provider.
3. Enter your email address and password.
4. Tap Next and wait for Mail to verify your account.
5. Choose information from your email account, like Contacts or Calendars.
6. Tap Save.
   

If you don't see your email provider, tap Other to add your account manually.
