FairEmail

Open source, privacy friendly email app for Android

This email app might be for you if your current email app:

  • takes long to receive or to show messages
  • can manage only one email address
  • cannot handle a large number of messages
  • cannot show conversations
  • cannot work offline
  • looks outdated
  • is not maintained
  • stores your email on their servers
  • is closed source, potentially violating your privacy

This app is minimalistic by design, so you can concentrate on reading and writing messages.

This app starts a foreground service with a low priority status bar notification to make sure you'll never miss new email.

Main features

  • 100 % open source
  • Multiple accounts (inboxes)
  • Multiple identities (outboxes)
  • Unified inbox
  • Flat conversation threading
  • Two way synchronization
  • Offline storage and operations
  • Move across accounts
  • Battery friendly
  • Low data usage
  • Small (~6 MB)
  • Material design
  • Maintained and supported

Pro features

  • Account/identity colors
  • Notifications per account
  • Notifications with message details (requires Android 7 Nougat or later)
  • Notification sound per sender (requires Android 8 Oreo or later)
  • Snooze messages (instructions)
  • Send messages after selected time
  • Synchronization schedules (instructions)
  • Reply templates
  • Filter rules (instructions)
  • Search on device or server (instructions)
  • Keyword management
  • Encryption/decryption (OpenPGP) (instructions)
  • Export settings

Simple

  • Quick setup
  • Easy navigation
  • No bells and whistles
  • No distracting "eye candy"

Secure

  • No advertisements
  • No analytics and no tracking

Compatibility

FairEmail requires at least Android 5 Lollipop. Individual message notifications are available on Android 7 Nougat and later only because earlier Android versions do not support notification grouping.

FairEmail will work properly on devices without any Google service installed.

See here for known problems.
