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.
<i>FairEmail is an email client only, so you need to bring your own email address.</i>
<i>FairEmail does not support non-standard protocols, like Microsoft Exchange Web Services and Microsoft ActiveSync.</i>
<i>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.</i>
<i>A lot of effort has gone into this 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.</i>
