Emails - Photos/videos
Literally 9/10 times i try to send a photo or video (under the file size limit obviously) they never make it to other person... the email goes fine but with no attachments.
Please try switching the internet connection from WiFi to mobile data or vice-versa to see if the issue persists. Also, try sending a test email to your own email address to see if you’re receiving it and make sure you don’t attach files that are larger than 25MB.

Accessibility problems
Please reinstate the microphone in the IOS onscreen keyboard. I rely on dictation when writing. Now I need to dictate a note in another program and then cut and paste it into the AOL email app.
Also, there is no comma on the iOS onscreen keyboard in the email app, making it very difficult to send to more than one person.
The comma is added automatically after you select an email address and make sure that you have the latest version of iOS and for the AOL App regarding the issue with missing your microphone.
