FairEmail, privacy aware email APK Download for Android

Description

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 simple to use, but if you are looking for a very simple email app, FairEmail might not be the right choice.

FairEmail is an email client only, so you need to bring your own email address. FairEmail is not a calendar/contact/task/note manager and cannot make you coffee.

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.

A lot of effort has gone into this mail app, which was developed to help you protect your privacy. If you have a question or problem, there is always support at marcel@faircode.eu.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

User's Reivew

5 ★Turned to this app yesterday after I finally got fed up of Gmail letting me down. So far so good. If everything still works well in a few weeks I will buy premium. Thank you. A+

4 ★Much better than Outlook. Searches are excellent and fast - even with 8000+ emails. Con: no option to NOT mark emails on the server as Read. Great protection from spammers etc.

5 ★By far the best email client I've tried. Nice UI, heavily privacy-focused, and easy to use despite containing a plethora of advanced features.

5 ★Absolutely the best email client out there for Android....tried several to discover the most user friendly..... Easy to read / navigate.... regular updates.... concientious developer...✨🥰

5 ★I tried this email client after gmail, and K-9. It is full of features and the best thing it is privacy oriented. Many thanks to the Dev for his precious and amazing work.

5 ★FairEmail developer was very kind and quick to respond. I thought I left a 4 star review previously. After the developer helped me tweak my settings the app performs at a solid 5 star rating. Thank you.

5 ★At first it seemed cluttered and hard to read at a glance. But now after a couple months it makes perfect sense and I feel very good about the control and information about my email. I knew what a tracking pixel was from web sites, but I had never thought about them being used in email. I was on a mailing list for a favorite author who offered to remove me from the list because I hadn't opened her previous emails. Haha, I had opened them but FairEmail didn't load the tracking image.

5 ★I've been using the paid version of fairmail for a good while now & it's the best email client I've ever used. It's well worth the money

5 ★Great App with a lot of functions, easy to use even with the basic settings. After one day I experienced some problem and contact the support. Within few hours I got a very competent reply. At the end I figured out that my e-mail host had changed the settings for the SMTP server and it was not related to the app at all. Full recommendation.

5 ★Simple to use, with powerful features if you want. I paid for the full version. Best feature is an alert when the synch goes bad with an account, so you can action a solution. The standard Android mail app didn't do that. So I was always left wondering why I wasn't receiving messages. This solved that, and is a main reason why I switched.

5 ★Great email app, does what it should and more! This is the only app I've paid to upgrade to full version, worth it

5 ★This is an excellent E-mail client, especially if you know something about E-mail as it hides nothing. Errors and problems that other e-mail clients silently ignore that screw-up logins or sending/receiving messages, (are you listening Outlook?), are shown so you can deal with them, though less technical people may find it difficult at first. A bit of a learning curve, but well worth it. Also a solid recommend as a "business/corporate" e-mail client.
