Ratings and reviews

I'm a Longtime K9 User and love the newest version! Just one requested tweak... In Default/Light mode, after reading an email, the contrast between the letters and grey background is very slight to the point that it is not easy to read the words when scrolling for a specific, previously read email. Can you lighten a bit of the grey background for more contrast and/or is there a way to do it ourselves within the app? Keep up the good work! 👏🏻🧔🏻

What Thunderbird has done to this app is an absolute crime. It's no longer just the UI and cosmetic issues but the app is now stupidly slow and constantly crashes. This was once the leanest, fastest, and easy to use app for someone with multiple email accounts and now it's borderline useless. I wish companies could just realize when they have something great rather than try to make it something that it's users never wanted in the first place.

Don't see the issues others have raised. Not perfect, but as simple or complicated as you want it to be. Defaults are not ideal but it's way easier to quickly adjust with a quick look at the settings than before. Less clunky and more functional than Gmail. Worth switching to for only a slightly worse learning curve. Seems to suffer in some technological edge cases, but none in my own experience -- read reviews to see.
