ProtonMail Bridge for Android and iOS
There are already great mail clients on Android and iOS available. It would be nice if I could use them with protonmail as well.

I would like to consolidate my accounts and I prefer to use only the iOS mail, contact, and calendar apps. For some of my proton mail addresses it's okay for me to have not the full security the proton app offers. It's good enough to have my data hosted with proton.

I was about to switch to Proton for the accounts I can control, but I can’t switch them all. Requiring me to use the Proton app is a dealbreaker because it means I have to use multiple apps to check email. It’s a bummer because I love Proton otherwise, but it’s not worth the hassle. Now I won’t be a Proton customer.

I use Fairemail and this is crucial for me, plus I find that the Protonmail app uses too much battery.

HIN, another provider for secure email and more, also from Switzerland, found a way for some kind of a mobile bridge using VPN (https://support.hin.ch/de/hin-mail-mobile/wie-richte-ich-hin-mail-auf-meinem-iphone-ipad-ein/).

This is a crucial feature. To access all my email accounts in one app of choice on all devices is simply a must.

Like others have said, a Bridge for 3rd party email clients for Android would be ideal. Personally, Edison Mail is my go to for Android clients. It easily allows me to mark emails as spam, then block and/or delete all the other emails. In addition, it also adds contacts, and provides a separate inbox for each email address.

It‘s important for me to have all accounts in one app i.e. apple mail like in macOS!

The ProtonMail for Android app is pretty primitive. I use Blue Mail for my other accounts and it would be a great help to be able to use it for my ProtonMail account. I use the paid ProtonMail service and this is my most significant complaint.
I see that someone has ported Bridge for the Termux emulator on Android and I might try that.
Thanks,

There are excellent android email clients already, and ProtonMail can take advantage of that.
K-9 Mail and FairEmail are pretty decent open source android clients that PM can suggest, if they had PM Bridge for android, instead of focusing on building their own app.Don't get me wrong, having a dedicated app is good, but no matter how fancy, privacy focussed and feature rich it is, it limits the app's usage to only PM accounts.
I personally would love to access ProtonMail via AquaMail.

Current ProtonMail app for Android is bad and with Bridge I could start using whatever client I want

+3 Please. ProtonMail on Android works okay but not stunning either... we've waited for thread view for years, for example...

Do we even know if this will be implemented in the future? This is such a pain in the ass...

I would like the opportunity to use a 3rd party email app on Android, as I don't use a desktop machine except once per month. I prefer to use Bluemail so that I can get all my emails in one location and have the customization and features that I need.
Can a bridge app be made for Android so that I can add my Protonmail account within Bluemail or another email app?

This would be fantastic - the app on iOS is not bad, but UX can't compete with other clients. ProtonMail's core business is doing private email rather than designing mobile apps, so why not create a bridge for phone users as well and let them use any mail client of choice ?

Please... thank you.

The only missing thing, to me.
Protonmail Android client is nice but too simple for advanced users.
It would be great to have the possibility to use Protonmail account with AquaMail for example.
Best regards

It would be great to have a bridge on android. I don't have Google Play Services on my phone and without them notifications in Protonmail won't work. Proton still refuses to fix their app to work without Google. Tutanota managed to do it. Why Protonmail can't? At least give people a way to use 3rd party mail client with the bridge.

To add Protonmail email address to Outlook on Android, Bridge for mobile (iOS/Android) is required.

As soon as a bridge arrives for iOS I will be making the move to proton as my main email account.

Is it possible to develop something like protonbridge for iOS and Android? It will be easier if I only use one email client in my phone.
