This is an excellent app. It strikes a balance between being intuitive with a robust set of features to give users lots of control.
The maintainer responds promptly to questions, bug reports and feature requests. There are new releases coming out regularly. I love the unified inbox and the swipe gestures. It makes it really easy to stay on top of things.
Really, I can't recommend this app more.
Best alternative to Thunderbird on a phone. Extremely feature-rich, with support for multiple sender identities for each account, fine-grained sync and notification settings, a conversation view, and tracking pixel blocking.

Fast, secure, customizable, etc. A great app!
Nice app.
Without a doubt, the best Thunderbird alternative for Android devices
FairEmail manages to do everything Thunderbird can on a mobile platform, making it the best option for an on-the-go e-mail client that will not fail to disappoint on any level, and it's free which makes it the best possible deal for a secure, mobile e-mail client.
Wholeheartedly recommended.
Many features, neatly arranged. I'm donating.
