FairEmail user reviews :

I love doing my email here – all (currently 16) personal and business accounts. I originally found it because of the exceptional filtering, but have since learned that it does a tremendous job at so much more. There are many options, yet it’s not overwhelming. I bought several others over the years, so can confidentially say that FairEmail is definitely worth your giving it a try. It’s the best email app purchase I’ve made, and can’t imagine my ever going elsewhere.

Kudos to the developer! Brilliantly done! Love it! Have been using email apps on Android since Gingerbread. Have used all if them. Will stick with this one for as long as its around! 10 stars.Edit: This app is going to be a legend! Marcel, single handedly has created a phenomena! Edit: some weeks later and what can I say – it gets better and better. This is by far the best email app in play store!

I run my own cloud services, and I appreciate that FairEmail is truly privacy-focused, blocking tracking images, not phoning home, and not leaking information. Best of all, it’s open source. The built-in support for S/MIME is great. I had a small feature request, and the author responded immediately and patched the code the same day. Great work, Marcel! I’ve never paid for an Android app before, but I’m happy to support FairEmail.

This is hands down my favorite email app. It’s easy to set up, intuitive to use and is loaded with privacy features and configuration options. You can really customize it to meet your specific needs. Also, the app is regularly updated. I’m a happy pro subscriber because this app is well worth the money, especially considering its business model is ethical and not selling my data.
