I’m tried of how terrible Gmail is. Id like an email client with folders or categories. If it can sort them automatically (like how Googles now defunct inbox app used to) that would be even better.
Edit: in a couple days or whenever the activity on this post slows down. I will update this post with a list of the most recommended email app.
Edit2:
Results are in: Number is the amount of people who specifically mentioned it.
- FairMail 6
- K-9 5
- Spark 2
- ProtonMail
- Re:work
- Nine
- Tutanota
- Canary Mail
- Aqua
Still have this post saved waiting for the list…
Re:work. If you need Exchange connectivity look no further. It has a subscription model, but there’s absolutely nothing better than it. Made my the same company that made the previous Exchange king, Nine.
I used K9 for years but recently switched to FairEmail. Works better in terms of auto-completing addresses, has better sever-side search. Previously it looked horrible compared to K9 but lately it has added Material You and other attractive theming options. It has a rather intimidating level of options but is very powerful. That being said, I still like K9 and will probably continue to check in as they add features and become part of Thunderbird. Both K9 and FairEmail are really good in terms of being ad-free, privacy-respecting clients with unified inboxes, dark mode and other features most important to me. K9 has advantage of being totally free where FairEmail puts some key features behind a purchase, which I understand, as it’s a solo developer.
I just wish Android had a nice email client that was material you and material 3 like Gmail and also wasn’t Gmail
Fairemail on android. Thunderbird on pc. K9Mail on android is also good but I prefer fairemail
