Did you ever wanted to add a hyperlink to your signatures but did not know how to do it?</p> <p>Well, recently Apple added excactly the named missing feature to iOS.</p> <p><strong>How to </strong></p> <p>Firstly you will have to send an email with the signature you want to add right to your own email address. After it appeared in your inbox you will have to copy the whole signature. Then go to your signature preferences by tapping Settings &gt; Mail, Contacts, Calendars &gt; Signature. Afterwards you simply paste the copied signature in the empty field. Tap Done and you are finished.</p> <p><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mbkkcikmrj1qfcnpz.jpg"/></p> <p>As I wrote this nifty feature really helps me to send emails with hyperlinks right from my iPhone or iPad.</p> <p>Note: As named above, iOS 6 is necessary to use hyperlinks in your signatures</p>http://yanlu.tumblr.com/post/33152454380http://yanlu.tumblr.com/post/33152454380Mon, 08 Oct 2012 06:15:03 -0400emailmailsignatureemail signatureiOS6iOSiPhoneiPadhyperlinklinkURLtutorialquick tiptip<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mbkkj17Kzx1qgzn9lo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://yanlu.tumblr.com/post/33152478586http://yanlu.tumblr.com/post/33152478586Mon, 08 Oct 2012 04:15:35 -0400freecnsupdate<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mbachtwOOH1qgzn9lo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Dramatic sky</p>http://yanlu.tumblr.com/post/32758705402http://yanlu.tumblr.com/post/32758705402Tue, 02 Oct 2012 17:46:41 -0400Instagram“A design isn’t finished until somebody is using it”<br/><br/> - <em>Brenda Laurel in Twitter</em>http://yanlu.tumblr.com/post/32598505485http://yanlu.tumblr.com/post/32598505485Sun, 30 Sep 2012 11:52:36 -0400designquoteqoutes<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mb61fxkb6b1qgzn9lo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Sunset</p>http://yanlu.tumblr.com/post/32592215439http://yanlu.tumblr.com/post/32592215439Sun, 30 Sep 2012 09:57:33 -0400Instagram
