FairEmail is an email application that prioritizes privacy. It is designed to be simple and easy to use, but may not be the best choice for those looking for a very basic email app. FairEmail is solely an email client, so users must have their own email address. It does not offer additional features such as a calendar, contact manager, task manager, or note manager. FairEmail also does not support non-standard protocols like Microsoft Exchange Web Services and Microsoft ActiveSync.
While most features are free to use, some may require payment in order to maintain and support the app in the long term. This includes pro features such as account customization, notification settings, and message scheduling. The app was developed with a focus on protecting user privacy, and support is available via email for any questions or issues.
FairEmail is designed to be minimalistic, allowing users to focus on reading and writing messages without any distracting "eye candy." It also includes a foreground service with a low-priority status bar notification to ensure that users never miss new emails.
Privacy is a top priority for FairEmail, and the app offers features such as encryption/decryption, reformatting messages to prevent phishing, and confirming the opening of links and images to prevent tracking. It also does not store data on third-party servers and does not require any special permissions or display advertisements.
The app is efficient and lightweight, with support for IMAP IDLE (push messages) and built with the latest development tools and libraries. Pro features are available for added convenience and advanced options, such as customizable notification settings, message scheduling, and automatic message classification.
If users have any questions or issues, they can refer to the FAQ section or contact support via email. FairEmail is an original work and not a fork or clone of any other email app.
