Perhaps you have drafts of old messages you didn't have time to finish, or maybe you use draft messages as templates so you don't have to type things over and over again. However you use drafts, here's a quicker way to access them in the iOS Mail app instead of browsing around for your Drafts folder.

When viewing any folder in, just tap and hold the Compose button.
