How to use multiple email aliases on your iPhone 

For the longest time, email coming from my iPhone was stuck using my regular Gmail address.

Now, I’ve discovered how to use email aliases that I’ve previously set up using Gmail.

When setting up your mail account on the phone, use the “Other” account option. I suggest selecting the IMAP toggle. Then enter the email address you want to use and fill out all the other information using your Gmail info.

To add an additional alias, create another account of type “Other.”

  1. Select POP mail, and enter the address you would like to use as the alias.
  2. Under the incoming mail option, put in a single character for each field. (These can be optionally removed later.)
  3. For outgoing mail, enter your Gmail info.

What this does is set up one account that can sync with your Gmail, and multiple additional accounts that can only send through your Gmail SMTP account.

When you send mail, you should now see an additional “From:” field, where you can choose your alias.
