Apple Intelligence: How to Use Writing Tools on iOS

Select Language:

Are you having trouble with the new Apple Intelligence Writing Tools in Mail on your iPhone or iPad? If so, you’re not alone. Many users have noticed that when they use the “Rewrite” feature, the text that appears afterward doesn’t match the original formatting. Instead, it comes out looking strange, which can be frustrating especially if you’re working on professional emails.

Here’s a simple way to resolve this issue temporarily until Apple releases an official fix:

Complete the Rewrite: Use the “Rewrite” function as usual. When the new text appears, do not send the email right away.
Select the Rewritten Text: Tap and hold to highlight the entire rewritten section. You might see formatting issues such as font color changes or indentation with a quotation line.

Clear Formatting: Tap on the “AA” (text formatting) button if available, or look for an option to clear or reset formatting. If your email app doesn’t have this option directly, you can copy the text, then paste it into a plain text editor like Notes or a new email draft set to default formatting.
Reformat if Necessary: After pasting the plain text back into your email draft, you may need to reapply any specific styles or colors you prefer.

By doing this, you strip away unintended formatting that was introduced. This quick step keeps your email looking professional and consistent without the formatting bugs.

Additionally, make sure your iOS is fully updated, as Apple often releases patches that fix bugs. Keep an eye on updates, and if this bug continues, consider reaching out to Apple Support to report the issue. Many times, user feedback helps guide future software improvements.

For now, this workaround can help you keep your emails looking clean and professional until a proper fix is available.
