If you're writing an email on your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad and you don't have time to finish, or you're simply not sure you're ready to send it yet, you can always save it as a draft and come back to it later. However, it can take a lot of hunting actually find that draft and get back to it! Luckily, iOS contains a gesture shortcut that can make tracking down all your draft emails a lot faster.

How to quickly access draft emails on the iPhone and iPad

  1. Launch the Mail app from the Home screen of your iPhone or iPad.
  2. In the lower right hand corner, hold down on the Compose button. This will bring up the drafted emails.
  3. Simply tap on the draft you'd like to finish writing and you can fire away the email as soon as you're done. That's all there is to it.
