Hi everyone,
We’re happy to announce that the new Proton Mail Android app is now available in beta to all Proton supporters!
The app has been rewritten from the ground up to make it more stable and reliable. This provides a solid foundation for new features we plan to add soon. The app already includes one of the most requested features - Conversation mode, which is enabled by default.
You can join the beta program in 2 easy steps:
-
Go to the Proton Mail app in the Google Play Store
-
Scroll down to the “Become a beta tester” section and tap “Join now.”
Find more information here: https://proton.me/support/mail-android-beta.
You should receive an update if you’re already in the beta program. Note that it may take some time for your app to update. Please note that some minor features you may use daily are yet to be added to the new Mail Android app.
We plan to release this updated version of the Proton Mail Android app to everyone in the coming weeks.
Thank you for your support and for helping us test our apps! As always, we look forward to your feedback.
The Proton team
If you’re using Aurora, you can select Manual Download with build number 7340.
You’re a real one.
Thanks.
Although there is a “join the beta” button now, just before comments 🎉
Thank you for this. How did you find the beta build number? I assume it’ll change as soon as the push a bug fix.
You can find it on apk mirror. Also once you have it, it should normally offer updates automatically in Aurora. Atleast that is the case for me
Ah, awesome. Only recently switched to using Aurora. Thought you might need a Google account to find/get beta versions.
If I manually install the application then do I get updates from Aurora? Or do I have to manually enter the new build number?
Normally updates should be shown in Aurora IIRC.
