* Pull down to refresh: new messages are received in real-time, so manual refreshing is not needed, see also [this FAQ](#user-content-faq2).
* Switch language: although it is possible to change the language of an app, Android is not designed for this. Better fix the translation in your language if needed, see [this FAQ](#user-content-faq26) about how to.
* Notification per account: this would result in multiple icons in the status bar and most people don't like this. Note that the account colors are shown in the notifications too.
* Select identities to show in unified inbox: this would add complexity for something which would hardly be used
* Better design: please let me know what you have in mind [in this forum](https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/source-email-t3824168)
* Hide archived messages: hiding archived messages which exists in other folders too would have a performance impact
* Save all attachments: there is no [Storage Access Framework](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/providers/document-provider) API to selected multiple files to save

Since FairEmail is meant to be privacy friendly, the following will not be added:
* Open links without confirmation
* Hide addresses by default: addresses play an important role in determining if a message is authentic
* Direct file/folder access: for security/privacy reasons apps should use the [Storage Access Framework](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/providers/document-provider)
Confirmation or hiding the addresses section is just one tap, which is just a small price for better privacy.
Note that your contacts could unknowingly send malicious messages if they got infected with malware.
