About

FairEmail is easy to set up and works with virtually all email providers, including Gmail, Outlook and Yahoo! FairEmail might be for you if you value your privacy. FairEmail is an email client only, so you need to bring your own email address. FairEmail does not support non-standard protocols, like Microsoft Exchange Web Services and Microsoft ActiveSync. Almost all features are free to use, but to maintain and support the app in the long term, not every feature can be for free. See below for a list of pro features. This app is deliberately 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 emails.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The ease of setup, configuration, and multitude of settings along with IMHO a good design makes it a joy to use. In addition the Pro Features are given with just a little donation, just under $8 at the time of this writing. It works with your own custom email and Gmail, although I keep Gmail separate from FairEmail as Google does a fine job as well. Documentation is extensive which is always a welcoming fact. RTFM.

Cons

  • Many ways to install, Play store, f-droid, GitHub builds, etc. Though this is not unique when trying to get the Pro Features to work after a reinstallation it can prove annoying. One of the pros was many options/settings, but on occasion this is a con too... either conflicts or not being able to find what you need.
