Mail has always been important to everyone. iPad adheres to this notion, so it included a smart mail application in iPad tablets. This mail application has sophisticated features exclusively for iPad. These uniquely designed features makes iPad mail a leap ahead from other mobile mail apps.
There are different ways of viewing a mail on the iPad. It shares with the idea of landscape and portrait views alike other iPad applications and has the capability of setting its view into split-screens, showing two different mails at the same time with two-line previews of the mail contents. With such feature, a user can dynamically work on emails quick time. In order to view a single message alone, you can just simply switch to portrait to have the mail solely displayed in a horizontal layout. Upon switching the iPad to portrait, the e-mail messages are automatically rotated to fully fit the screen, therefore giving a comprehensive and detailed look at individual messages.
Message composition on the iPad mail app is compact. A tap command (finger-gestures over touch screens) brings up a large onscreen keyboard filling up about half of the screen with keys roughly the size of a notebooks’. The keyboard also conveniently switches to a different view whenever tap-commanded. Common email features like Autocomplete- which follows the word you are typing and displays word presets. This process aids in speeding up mail compositions by simply suggesting words as you type. Auto correct spelling, which robotically reviews every word and corrects its spelling according to the English dictionary word library. This mail app also has mechanized punctuation inserts, filling in appropriate punctuations of the thorough mail.
Mail in iPad does display rich HTML e-mails. Upon receiving an email attachment it can be directly viewed by the Mail App without so far downloading or saving the content on the system. This distinct feature makes the user more secured and protected, allowing them to check and pre-select what or which is to be downloaded. Also, this mail app supports most standard file and image formats such as iWork, Microsoft Word, Excel and Powerpoint files, making it viewable with the iPad. Workable image files are, JPG, JPG2, PNG, GIF, etc. Photo attachments in e-mails can be directly transferred to the user’s photo library with recognizable tap commands.
Another advanced feature which makes iPad Mail spring over its competing mail brands is its capacity to convert web URLs, e-mail addresses, phone numbers and street addresses into active web links. This highlight does conveniently help the user to just tap on any of the converted links whenever needed. iPad mail is so smart that it memorizes the mail page you are on with, and allows you to get back to where you left of in case of interruptions like when you needed to search a phone number from a different message, or you are compelled to instantly compose a different message.
iPad is compatible with the most popular email providers in the likes of Microsoft Exchange, MobileMe, Hotmail, Yahoo! Mail, AOL and all other standard IMAP and POP Email Hosts.
