I can partly explain a part of this phenomenon: The mail app is open, it is still recieving messages as you work. You interact with item 12. When you go back, 8 more have come in, so nowyou are at 4 in the list you left and 12 in the fuller list. I would call it a dynamic process however damnably irritating.

Over the years there have always been focus issues in message lists, and when ovening message threads for the first time I will rarely land on message 1. Then, when opening a message in the thread and using the Messages item in the rotor to move to the next message, I may get bounced back to a message that’s way earlier in the thread than the one that I intended to move to. For example, let’s say I’m on message 50 of 120 in the thread. I use Messages in the rotor and select Next Message. In this example, I might get bounced back to Message 21. These are just a couple of situations that are frustrating me like crazy. I could try the GMail app or Outlook for Ios, but I like the native mail app for the most part and am realy surprised that Apple hasn’t managed to make the damn thing behave. Surely I’m not the only one who’s having focus issues such as I’ve described above. -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
