Ohhh… I feel the pain of the developers. I do a lot of embedded device interfaces. This has happened to me several times as a software developer, you put a lot of effort into some good-looking and, you think, super clever solution that you expect every user to love.
An then, of course, it turns out that you did not quite know exactly how your users used your piece of software. Everyone is displeased and the hard to swallow pill is that your excellent design that you put so much effort into is not the Magic Stuff pleasing everyone you expected.
These days I try to see it as valuable information on what exactly it is that makes my piece of software so useful.
The upside in this case is that both interface ought to be able to coexist, just make it a setting. This luxury is rarely an option for me.
Few years ago when I changed phone to new device and reinstalled apps, I thought maybe lets check out some other e-mail apps. I tried many but in the end K-9 Mail it was again. I did not found anything similar to K-9 Mail. Maybe now there is.
Like many others here, I’ve added my 2 cents on why the overview screen (and) as a home screen was a defining feature, and one that I can simply not miss.
I’m back on this forum.only to check whether there is a (developer) reaction about what will be done,.if anything, and when - but I see nothing. Developers: PLEASE say something? I’m goijg to find another app but I’ll gladly return if the account overbiew or an equivalent is available again.
In the mean time, does anyone know if Fairemail has an acxount overview screen? I saw others asking that question, but couldn’t find an answer.
Hello, I’m a long time user of K9. I love it, configuration backup and restore with a single file, highly customisable, access to all the capabilities of imap servers, … K9 does exactly what I want and need.
The look was oldish but I didn’t care.
It’s good you renewed the interface but please, bring back 2 things:
-accounts overview page
-display unread mails of an account and subfolders of the account
Thanks for your job.
I have the same opinion. Please bring back the old overview. I have several accounts, some more, other less important. In the old overview i saw all and i could decide, wich account to see. Less Clicks !!
– Please bring it back!!
No question!
Please bring back the overview screen!
All my family is using K9 mail because of my recommendation.
All of them are dissappointed about the abscence of the overview screen!
