Can I add an image or logo to my iPhone email signature?

Not in the built-in Mail app — it only supports plain text. To use a signature with images and formatting on iPhone, use the Gmail or Outlook iOS app, which support HTML signatures.

How do I remove the 'Sent from my iPhone' signature?

Go to Settings → Mail → Signature. Tap the signature field and delete the existing text. You can leave it blank or replace it with your own signature.

Does iOS Mail support HTML signatures at all?

No. The iOS Mail app only renders plain text signatures. HTML code will appear as raw text. Use a third-party mail app like Gmail or Outlook for iOS if you need HTML signatures.

Can I have different signatures for work and personal email on iPhone?

Yes. Go to Settings → Mail → Signature, then tap 'Per Account'. You can set a different signature for each email account configured on your iPhone.

How to Add an Email Signature on iPhone (iOS Mail App)

The built-in Mail app on iPhone supports email signatures, but with one important limitation: iOS Mail only displays plain text signatures. You can't use HTML formatting, images, or links. If you need a formatted signature on mobile, consider using Gmail or Outlook for iOS instead.

Step-by-step setup

Go to your iPhone's home screen and open the Settings app (the gray gear icon). Don't open the Mail app itself — signature settings live in the system Settings.

Scroll down in Settings until you see 'Mail'. Tap it.

Scroll down in the Mail settings until you see the 'Signature' option. Tap it.

At the top, you can choose 'All Accounts' (one signature for every email account) or 'Per Account' (different signature for each account). Tap your preferred option.

Pro tip: Use 'Per Account' if you have both a work email and a personal email on your phone and want different signatures for each.

Tap the signature field and clear the existing text ('Sent from my iPhone').

Type your name, title, company, phone number, and any other details you want. Keep it brief — mobile signatures work best as 3-5 lines of plain text.

Tap the back arrow to return to Mail settings. Your signature is saved automatically. Open the Mail app and compose a new email to test.

Common issues

Pasted HTML is showing as code, not formatted text

iOS Mail does not support HTML signatures. Only plain text works here. If you need an HTML signature on mobile, install the Gmail or Outlook app and use that instead.

Signature not appearing in sent emails

Make sure you're sending from the Mail app and not a third-party app. Also check that the Signature setting is under the correct account (All Accounts vs Per Account).

Different signature showing for some accounts

If you switched from 'All Accounts' to 'Per Account', each account gets its own signature. Check each account individually and update the signature text.
