For instance, work has been done on easier navigation, a clearer design and faster access to frequently used functions. This is reflected in, for example, writing a new post.

Performance has also been important in the development of the revamped app. According to Proton, scrolling through the inbox, archiving or responding to messages is now twice as fast. There is a fully functional offline mode. This allows you to read, draft and organise emails without an internet connection. Handy for on the plane.

Another notable change is that the functionality of the Android and iOS app is now aligned. As a result, you can now access features like message scheduling and snoozing on Android as well. Also, Proton has taken advantage of the development to push the same plans to other Proton apps. According to the developer, this architecture can be used to develop Proton Calendar, for example.

The update will be rolled out to all users in the coming days.
