Canary Mail - Privacy-friendly email app for macOS, iOS & 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.

Hey everyone 👋 If the uproar around WhatsApp’s new privacy policy has one bright spot, its that there’s superb privacy-friendly alternatives for chat, such as Signal. The idea behind Canary is simple - to be Signal for email, ie, a privacy-friendly alternative to your favorite email app, that offers a simple design and powerful feature-set. Let’s dig a little deeper. First, what exactly do we mean by privacy-friendly? 🔐 Easy-to-use end-to-end encryption (PGP / OpenPGP / GPG compatible) 📱 Local database encryption 👉 Biometric app lock 🔔 Option to choose between instant server-based Push or secure on-device Fetch notifications 📂 Built using open source libraries wherever possible, including for encryption (Bouncy Castle) and email sync (JavaMail + MailCore2) ☁️ Minimal server footprint for opt-in features 🚫 No ads and no data-mining That’s a top-tier security suite. But don’t worry, this is not some spartan app that’s clunky to use. With Canary you’ll get: ✅ Read receipts ⏰ Snooze 👎 Newsletter management & one-click unsubscribe 💌 Gmail categories 👩‍❤️‍👨 Contact profiles 📆 In-app calendar (coming soon) 📄 Reusable mail templates 🧹 Inbox cleaner (just scroll to delete junk) 📲 Familiar, native, intuitive design so there’s no learning curve And much more. All underpinned by top-notch engineering: 💯 Canary is 100% native - no slow, buggy, cross-platform web tech 👌 Optimized for low-bandwidth and minimal on-device storage use 🚀 Snappy in-app experience - email loading, sending, search, etc Canary for macOS & iOS is regularly featured by Apple on the App Store and is available for a simple, one-time fee. No subscription. Canary for Android is now in public beta and is FREE to use for PH users - just hit GET IT!

I have this app on my iPhone and iPad. Regarding privacy and encryption Canary is the email app for you. So if you need this go for it!

Love the app and kudos to Sohel/Dev!! Just a couple of requests: 1- Re Appearance: please add an auto setting for Theme ie light/dark based on day/night...and assume the App Icon should change based on that as well :-) 2- Re Thread Actions: please add a 5th Action :-) Wishing you continued success!!

I love Canary on my iPhone and MacBook, glad Android users are getting it!

Update on M1 Compatibility

Canary is overall quite good (pin, snooze, pgp etc) but are still some things I’m missing: -manually loading of images on iOS per mail not only on or off -sending of bigger attachments should be possible (hey it’s 2021!) - sharing with canary should work everywhere (you can share a picture, but not a note or a garage band project with the share button?) And the biggest thing - don’t know if is a iOS or a canary problem: Sending an invite from Zoom on iOS opens iOS mail. Contacting the support from any app (from inside the app) opens iOS mail. I mean when another client is set as default, it should open than and not iOS mail.

Such a big fan of the new Canary for both Mac and iOS! I used Canary a couple years ago on both platforms, but it felt slow and a little tired. After getting frustrated with the Gmail app's ads, and Spark's privacy issues + bloat, I thought I'd give Canary another try - and MAN what an improvement Canary version 3 has brought!! The iOS and Mac apps are both beautiful, clean, and fast. I feel good knowing that my data is mine, and devs have been helpful and responsive on questions and bug fixes. Some smart features here as well. Excited to keep using and see how both platform's apps evolve. Just waiting for a Windows version, since I'm required to use windows for work!!

These fakers took money for my osx canary app, then updated it and demanded more money. I asked for my money back or the older app. They declined. I think it's a robbery and they are cheaters. I do not recommend to use it.

@sohelsanghani Any chance for a chromebook version of Canary mail? Love using it on my iPad and iPhone, and would love to use it on a pixelbook.
