Feature request: Swipe left/right to Delete/Move emails

Such a feature seems pretty standard now for Android email & messaging apps.
It would save a lot of finger motion and taps too.
Ideally the actions for left & right swipe would be configurable…

Similar interest here.
Swipe left/right for delete / Mark as read.
So selectable Swipe Actions seem the Best solution. I read somebody else wants to open the message with a right Swipe.

I would like to see such an opportunity and I thought it was already there when I installed it.
It’s good when you can select and assign actions of several levels to the left or to the right.

K9-Mail ticks all the boxes which is why I donated last year. But missing gestures always keep me searching for other clients. The LineageOS default client implemented it nicely for me (delete & archive), but it was lacking severly in other aspects and was dropped for reasons.

Anyway, customizable swiping gestures would be awesome.

I also would like to see this feature!

Would be a great addition.

Seems to also be a reasonably popular request on github

Any updates on this please?

Hello. I am new to Github and have just installed K9 mail to adapt to it as FairEmail will no longer be developed.

Has there been any progress for the swipe features requested?

That should be a high priority feature. FairEmail implents this nicelly but I stick with K9-mail because it implemented GPG in a better way

Swipe features were first added in v6.312 and tweaked in v6.400 - both can be found on Github :slightly_smiling_face:
