Canary Mail brings a simple design, powerful feature-set, and easy-to-use email encryption. Now on Android.

Love canary Mail. The privacy focus,the native apps, open source ethos,the gorgeous design. Only thing missing to get rid of the bad guys (Google's Gmail on this case) is JMAP support. I appreciate that JMAP is still a young standard, but decent push notifications, fast indexing etc really is a huge selling point. JMAP is the alternative to Gmail's proprietary APIs and is love to see support in canary. In the meantime I ended up settling for canary on my Mac and the Fastmail clients on ios and Android. Best both worlds.

@jonashaefele Thanks for the feedback, Jonas! JMAP holds a lot of promise and we're following its progress with keen interest. Is there anything specific you wish Canary for Android / iOS had, other than JMAP support?

@sohelsanghani thanks ! Love what you do with canary. It just feels a bit slow, especially on mobile. Loading the inbox even With just 20 messages takes a while. Somehow it feels less obvious on mac. Guess it's because on Mac the app runs all the time and on mobile only when open. The slow update probably isn't Canary's fault, but just the slow imap protocol. Hence the idea/request to support JMAP. It just loads everything so much faster. I'll keep trying the mobile apps. And loving the Mac one. It's my daily driver now. On iOS btw, somehow hitting the default "email" icon on the sharing sheet still opens the Apple Mail app despite setting Canary as my default. But that might just be Apple aggressively pushing their own app.

@jonashaefele Isn't it closed source?

@bcye it's spearheaded by the folks at @Fastmail but an open standard. Developed to be an open alternative to proprietary APIs like the one Gmail uses. Lots of clients implement the Gmail api on top of IMAP but that only works with one provider JMAP could offer the same modern experience for all mail providers. https://jmap.io/

@fastmail @jonashaefele ah that's what you mean by open source ethos
