It’s a little tricky to setup an email signature with an image on iPhone or iPad. If you simply copy and paste a signature, the image will work at first but after some time, it will become missing and will just show up as a blank box instead of your image in your html email signature.
Here is the solution that worked for me. Hope it helps you.
Prepare the HTML signature. (Part 1 of 2)
- Upload your logo on the internet somewhere. You can upload it to your web server, google drive, dropbox, etc. As long as you can have a public link to it.
- Download my Sample HTML email signature with image for iPhone/iPad (right click on the link, save file)
- Open it with a simple text editor(not browser or word). (notepad for PC, or ATOM for MAC)
- Edit the signature, change the url of the image to the public url of the image that you’ve uploaded in step 1
- Edit your contact information here so you don’t have to do it later on your iPhone/iPad
- Save the .html file and email it to yourself.
