Fastmail – Email & Calendar 4+

This might be the only mail app i’ve ever used that doesn’t have the “view all accounts” feature. Even the native mail app on iphone has that feature to monitor several accounts at once. It’s a real bummer, because of that, I can’t use this app . The advantage of this app is very fast notification when emails come through so what I’m doing now is configured my emails on both Outlook iPhone App and Fastmail then I disabled notifications for Outlook App so I only get notified once. This gives me the best of both world although it begs the question should I just be on office 365 then since exchange notifications would be just as fast.

If fastmail app can integrate monitor all accounts feature, then I would easily recommend this service to everyone for simplicity and speed without needing third party apps.

UPDATE:Lately it has been hanging a lot, requiring forced restarts. May be my iPhone but I know no way to check.

It must be great given that I’m here merely to gripe about a small thing. Gripe: It takes way too many clicks to copy the address an email was sent to to the clipboard. I use disposable email addresses mostly (unique to each recipient, so there are hundreds) so I’m constantly needing to do this. I can see each address while scrolling through emails in a thread. but it’s: Click to expand tap, tap to show details (Yeah, NO, it’s not on this giant menu!??!) (NO, at this point or the last, I can’t long tap on the address either - that works in some other apps but in this one, that gets me almost nowhere as selecting and copying is impossible or really difficult and unpredictable that way—And my recollection is it was easier back in pre- iPhone 4 days but that’s an iOS issue...) Note: Discovering through trial and error that there is no quicker way to accomplish the task takes way, way more steps than shown here! tap for menu Tap for more Tap for copy

I’m a happy Fastmail user, and have used Gmail, Office365, Yahoo Mail, and a self-hosted solution in the past to handle my email. Out of all the options, Fastmail made the most sense, even after paying their reasonable fees. Haven’t had more than maybe a hour worth of downtime, and their support is actually useful. Their product is great and is not only super fast, but also secure. I’ve done a great deal of research into their backend/operations, and they are dedicated to security in a multitude of ways, and interested in the “next wave” of technologies for email. The only suggestion I have is for integration for iOS sharing (ex: If I want to share a PDF I first have to save to iCloud then upload that document from iCloud manually into email, whereas with Gmail you can use the sharing extension with one tap).

Edit: They added iOS Sharing!!! Yay!!!

Only last suggestion: add dark mode for iOS 13??
