Everyone can now manage their Infomaniak email addresses from their mobile phoneand tablet in a secure environment that guarantees the confidentiality of exchanges. The Infomaniak Mail app already offers all the standard features and will continue to evolve on a regular basis based on your feedback.
With Infomaniak Mail, Infomaniak is continuing to develop its ethical and independent alternatives to the web giants by enabling individuals and professionals to easily transfer their emails, contacts and appointments in a sovereign environment that respects privacy.
Infomaniak Mail secures and improves the management of your emails
The Infomaniak Mail app offers the most seamless and secure experience for your Infomaniak email addresses.
The new messages are instantly notified (push via API) with the guarantee that your emails are not retrieved (scraped) by a third-party company requesting IMAP access. The app makes it possible to switch between several organisations, find emails, personalise scanning actions, etc. It also benefits from advanced Infomaniak protection against phishing, viruses and unwanted messages.
Thanks to the Infomaniak API, the app ensures the availability of your messaging service abroad, even when the Internet providers block IMAP connections to foreign services. It also allows you to protect access to your emails by locking the device (Face ID, for example).
Infomaniak Mail, an ethical and secure messaging service
When you want to create a free email address, you’re always faced with the same problem. On the one hand, the web giants rely on advanced functions and abuse the privacy of users to develop their AI and sell advertising in exchange. On the other hand, encrypted mailboxes that are free are limited in storage and functionality, which hinders their adoption for daily use
By entrusting Infomaniak with managing your emails, you can count on the following guarantees:
- Privacy: no advertising and no email analysis
- Data hosted strictly in Switzerland in compliance with the FADP and GDPR
- Open source mobile app for greater security and transparency
- Service powered by renewable energy in data centers acknowledged for their energy efficiency
- A solution developed in Switzerland by an independent company committed to the environment
If you don’t want to personalise your email address with a domain name, you can obtain a free @ik.me @etik.com or @ikmail.com email address when starting the Infomaniak Mail app. You’ll have 20 GB to store your emails as well as 15 GB to store your documents and photos, and you’ll also be able to synchronise and unify your contacts and appointments in Infomaniak Mail and between all your devices. If necessary, it’s easy to transfer messages, contacts and appointments from a previous email address to Infomaniak.
The Infomaniak Mail app will regularly evolve
Our developers are already working on new features and enhancements to make your experience better and increase your productivity.
Here’s an overview of what’s being developed:
- Calendar and Contact synchronisation via the Infomaniak Mail app on your devices. In the meantime, it’s already possible to synchronise your data using our wizard, which guides you step-by-step to configure your devices.
- Possibility to automatically unsubscribe from newsletters you no longer wish to receive.
- Enhanced protection against spam with several additional measures (highlighting spam, managing spam filter from the app, managing contacts in your whitelist or blacklist), enabling spam filter, specifying that your sender is on your White List and Black List
- Improved signature management (including the choice of alias from which an email is sent)
- Quick actions in notifications (e.g. to quickly delete a received email)
We would like to take this opportunity to thank the 5,000 public testers who helped us identify the most important areas for improvement.
In particular, the following feedback is currently being looked at:
- Choice of sending email address
- Unified inbox for all your email addresses
- Display of the left side menu with a swipe on Android (available on iOS)
- Configuring an automatic out-of-office message/reply
- Improved differentiation between read and unread emails
