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.

I like Microsoft Android Apps, and I always felt like Outlook is pretty good if you have O365. Zero complaints.

I bought Nine and used it for a while, but I just felt like it was a bit too cluttered for an email app.

Not much of a choice to switch webclients. But on clients I’d start with Sparkmail. Except if you are on Linux… mac/win/ios/android only.

I’ll give sparkmail a try. Do you happen to know if they collect data from your emails when using their app?

I use protonmail and have a paid account there. They have filters that can automatically move mails to folders or give them a label.

I use protonmail as well. Can you create folders and set your rules for them from mobile in proton?

You can create folders and labels, but you need to go to the web version in order to make rules, but it all syncs up with the mobile app aswell. The website also works fine on mobile.

I recently switched from gmail to protonmail. I might start paying for the cheapest subscription at some point once I fully migrate over. The mobile app is really sleek and I think it is better than gmails mobile app.

Been using Nine on my personal device, as Outlook was horrible at syncing with IMAP accounts (only synced on demand, never in the background). On my work device, I do use Outlook, but with an O365 account it does work as intended.

I’ve seen nine recommend before. Other than syncing, are there any other features nine has that you like?

To be completely honest, Outlook is more user friendly (and free), but Nine can be customized in greater detail. If not for the sync headaches, I likely would’ve stayed on Outlook, I’m not a mail power user, which is where Nine shines.

I use the Outlook app and Gmail, Outlook for the same reason (work) but also because it does the job.

After reading this post though I’ll probably try others, I’ve seen good things about Nine before, anything you’re not liking about it?

Not really, it gets the job done. It’s a real client for power users, so you can get lost in the details of the configuration, but you don’t have to.

Another nice thing with Nine is you can configure it to not wipe your whole device if your admins decide to do that to you.

Absolutely true. Sad thing is my company only allowd for Outlook as a mail client, so using Nine for my work mail isn’t an option.
