Arrow missing on reply
Greetings,
An arrow used to show after replying or forwarding an email from my iPhone 7. We have had this aol account and app very long, it used to work. It was handy to know when checking emails to note which were taken care of and which needed attention. We made no changes it just stop showing up on the app, it shows when responding from the computer.
Thank you,
Jen

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.
