Richard,

Since you mentioned this a few weeks ago, I have been doing this, and it works. 
I also sometimes just turn off threading temporarily if I don't want to deal 
with any added swiping and fussing. For a thread as long as a few mentioned 
here, well, wow, I can't even imagine such a thread!

Yes, it is a problem especially with longer threads. 

I don't keep that many messages in one thread, but if a thread happens to have 
15 or 20 messages, I can experience that, so what I do is before opening the 
thread, flick up with one finger to expand thread.

Then, it lists them out separately so it is like not having threading on until 
you go back to the top of the group and fllick up to collapse thread and double 
tap.

HTH,

Hi,

Excuse me while I vent, as I’ve become increasingly frustrated with the native 
IOS mail app.  I’ve been using iPhones since the iphone 4  came along in 2010 
or 2011, and I’ve used Mail with my GMail account, which has been around since 
2007.

Over the years there have always been focus issues in message lists, and when 
ovening message threads for the first time I will rarely land on message 1. 
Then, when opening a message in the thread and using the Messages item in the  
rotor to move to the next message, I may get bounced back to a message that’s 
way earlier in the thread than the one that I intended to move to. For example, 
let’s say I’m on message 50 of 120 in the thread. I use Messages in the  rotor 
and select Next Message. In this example, I might get bounced back to Message 
21. 

These are just a couple of situations that are frustrating me like crazy.

I could try the GMail app or Outlook for Ios, but I like the native mail app 
for the most part and am realy surprised that Apple hasn’t managed to make the 
damn thing behave. 

Surely I’m not the only one who’s having focus issues such as I’ve described 
above.
