    PLEASE add an option to periodically poll protonmail servers directly.

    Users who are serious about privacy disable all google services, even on stock android builds.

    You are currently punishing your most privacy-conscious users by denying them new mail notifications (arguably a major piece of functionality for a mobile app).

    You are not google free until you remove the dependency on google cloud messaging for mobile notifications. Those of us with no google services on our android can not get notifications, which significantly limits the use of mobile email, if we have to go check it all the time.

    Make an option to periodically poll protonmail servers manually!
