Here, we are going to present an excellent free solution to schedule an email on the iPhone to send emails later. First, install Spark email app from iTunes (free). We tested the Spark email app and impressed with the simple interface and excellent features. Once you install this free iOS email app, you can configure Gmail, Yahoo, iCloud, or other email accounts just like the iOS native Mail app. With iOS 14 and above, you can change the default email app to Spark on iPhone. After you complete the installation, tap the icon for a new email. You can draft the email as usual with this email scheduler app and schedule an email to be sent later as shown below.
Before you send the email, tap on the send+timer tiny icon on the right bottom as we marked with the arrow in the screenshot. This will bring a popup screen with the time you want to schedule the email. You can select the default settings for scheduling the email or select Pick date to set customized date and time. The third screen brings you the choice for a more precise date and time. After you select the required time, tap on Apply to confirm. You’re good to go! Now you can see the send button changed to the scheduled time to send the email. You can close this window and the email will automatically send on the scheduled time. However, if you change your mind and want to change the scheduled email or time scheduled, you can come back and do the necessary changes. To get the scheduled email on iPhone, tap on the Spark email app hamburger menu on the top left corner.
Select the Outbox folder to see the emails scheduled to deliver later. Tap on the outbox and see all emails that are ready to deliver on scheduled time. Tap on any of these emails and change the date/time to modify the scheduled time. Just for the sake of screenshots, see the emails delivered on scheduled time, 5:15 PM. We set one more email at 5:20 PM and quit the Spark App from iPhone. We did this to make sure the email delivery without running the Spark Email running in the background.
Based on our test, we see there is no need to run the Spark app in the background to deliver the emails on scheduled time.
