You're not receiving push notifications for new emails in Airmail on iPhone or iPad.

Solution

Step 1: Enable Push in Airmail

1. Open Airmail
2. Go to Settings → Notifications
3. Make sure Push Notifications are enabled
4. Check that notifications are enabled for each account individually

Step 2: Check iOS Notification Settings

1. Go to iOS Settings → Notifications

3. Make sure Allow Notifications is ON
4. Enable: Lock Screen, Notification Center, and Banners
5. Set Alert Style to Persistent if you want them to stay on screen

Step 3: Airmail Pro Required

Important: Push Notifications are a Pro feature. If you're using the free version of Airmail, you will only receive notifications when you manually open the app. Upgrade to Airmail Pro for real-time push notifications.

Step 5: Disable Low Power Mode

Low Power Mode can delay or prevent push notifications. Disable it in Settings → Battery if you need real-time alerts.
