The Best Mail Clients for Android : A Quick Review Report

Recently, I puzzled while looking for friendly email client for my Android device.  And, the situation was not unique as I found all have their drawbacks. Let's look at the most popular e-mail clients for Android and try to find the best.

As a result of wanderings in Google Play, I selected the six most popular Mail clients which are successful in my opinion.

1. Blue Mail

Blue Mail is a popular e-mail client with support for a large number of postal services. It has very user-friendly interface and minimum setting - you must enter the mailbox password.

After setting up the client immediately begins syncing - and after a few moments you will already see rows of folders with your letters. That's great - subfolders marked as investment, but, unfortunately, turn into the main folder cannot be all the folders displaying a single list.

Appendix is perfectly adapted for touch screens - controlled via a mail is very convenient. It is possible to set the reminder time for a specific letter, the ability to customize the appearance and gestures, you can add a large number of accounts (different postal services, support for Exchange).

Pros:

free;

There is no limit on the number of accounts (may, of course, is - but a lot;

Not tied to a specific mail service;

Convenient management (ie control gestures);

Additional features (reminder filter to display messages in the application, configure the appearance of the application).

Cons:

You cannot collapse the subfolders to the main (if subfolders much, it turns out a long list, which is not convenient to work);

The interface is not smooth - when scrolling and withdraw sidebars sometimes retarding.

2. myMail

myMail is an excellent mail client aimed at an international audience. It’s offering quality services to the customers, minimum setting (no mail server, you need not). Completely free, not tied to a specific mail service, there is no limit to the number of connected accounts.

This is management friendly and comfortable, but as such no control gestures. In the list of folders nested shifted to the right with respect to the others, in spite of that they cannot be minimized - quite convenient to use (unless, of course, subfolders are not too many). Even if the letters and added a lot of accounts - runs very smoothly.

Unfortunately, there is no appearance settings, and the interface at the application seems specific enough (many may seem too "flashy"), the application has filters (for sorting mail).

Pros:

free;

There is no limit on the number of accounts;

Not tied to a specific mail service;

Friendly visual interface, subfolders are shifted relative to the other;

Smooth operation.

Cons:

Cannot be minimized subfolders in the main;

Very bright interface without customization;

when you reply to or forward the original formatting is lost letters.

3. Mailbox

Mailbox is the popular mail client for Google and iCloud. After logging interface meets us in soothing and pleasing colors. The letters are in chronological order, depending on the strength and direction of pulling letters perform various actions - for example, just to delay the letter to the right - it is marked as executed, pull on - letter moves to the basket, if you pull the left - there also its actions. Managing convenient, but you get used - I, for example, first letter ever mistakenly moved to the Trash.

It is possible to create reminders for time / date, there is an interesting sort mode analyzing user actions and, based on starts sorting the mail (of course you can create categories to sort).

Application works smoothly, small braking when scrolling noticed only at the moment when there is synchronization. The app is counted in the list of best email apps for Android .

Pros:

Free;

There is no limit on the number of accounts;

Simple operation;

Interesting feature of intellectual sorting mail and other options.

Smoothly and fast.

Cons:

The ability to use only Google Accounts and iCloud;

It takes time to get used to;

it is impossible to beat in the category of writing more on some lines.

4. MailDroid

MailDroid is a popular app with advertising and a large number of settings.

On the first pages of the settings immediately struck by the quality of translation. Navigation is intuitive, but in my opinion not very convenient. Smooth operation is no different.

MailDroid supports most popular email services, so configuration problems will not arise. Interface is made in soft blue and white, there are additional appearance settings. Default opens the folder "Inbox" in order to get to the other - need to go to a separate menu and there select the folder you want.

The application has a large number of settings, it is possible to buy additional extension (for example, Spam plug-in), and it is possible to archive emails, have export / import settings and much more.

Pros:

Free;

There is no limit on the number of accounts;

Friendly controls;

Many additional options / settings.

Cons:

Hype;

Enlargement will have to re-buy for a fee;

Despite the easy management interface, it seemed to me not very logical;

It does not work smoothly.

Free version of the application is limited - you can link only two e-mail accounts, plus all send letters added a signature with a link to the official website of the program. The full version can be unlocked for 4.95$ (the price at the beginning of 2015).

The application meets us with a nice interface, something significant of the material design from Google, when you first turn on each step tooltips that help to understand the basic functions and features of the application.

The interface is very smooth, good management is optimized for touch screens, is very convenient to work with a large number of letters.

Working with folders organized as follows - the default application displays only one folder "Inbox", the others can be added manually (choose only those which are needed on your phone). There is an interesting feature, "Smart Folder" - to get the letters on any criteria require attention, naturally configured criteria (for example, letters received in the last X days).

A variety of settings;
