Change the configuration of the Infomaniak Mail mobile app

This guide concerns the configuration of the mobile app Infomaniak Mail (application for iOS/Android smartphone or tablet).

 

The language of the application is based on the language of your device on which the mobile app Infomaniak Mail is installed and not on the language configured on your user account.

 

Access the application settings

To open the settings of the mobile app Infomaniak Mail (application for iOS/Android smartphone or tablet) on your device:

  1. Tap at the top left of your inbox:
  2. Click on the Settings icon at the top right of the pane that opens:
  3. You can manage the settings from the screen that appears:

     

a. Signature selection

If you have multiple email addresses linked to your account, tap on the email address for which you want to change the signature. Then choose another signature from those configured.

On iOS, you can also manage your read receipt requests.

b. my kSuite only

Provides information about the current subscription.

c. Application lock

This option allows you to protect the application by one of the locking methods of your device, which allows you to stay logged in to Infomaniak messaging with your user account but prevents access to Infomaniak Mail by a third party when the app is no longer in the open applications.

If your device has a fingerprint reader, you can use this method to activate the lock. Same for Face ID on iOS:

When reopening the application, authentication will be requested.

d. Notifications on the device

You can configure the notifications for each of the linked email addresses in the application.

e. Synchronization of contacts & calendars

For now, this synchronization is managed externally; refer to the assistant https://config.infomaniak.com/.

f. Automatic advance

This section allows you to choose the action to be taken after archiving or deleting an email: open the next message, or the previous, or return to the message list.

g. External content

This section allows you to choose whether to automatically display all external content present in an incoming email you are reading, or whether you prefer to hide it and only display it on demand.

h. Conversion list density

The display mode can be compact, normal, or large.

i. Theme

The theme allows you to choose a display type dark mode (dark) or conversely, a light display black on white. This display can also be defined according to the device theme (thus allowing to take up a possible system setting that would vary the display according to the time).

j. Accent color

The accent color is either blue or pink.

k. Swipe actions

Swipe actions allow you to define which operation Infomaniak Mail must perform if you swipe your finger across a message from right to left or from left to right:

The possible actions are:

  • delete the message (it goes to the trash)
  • archive the message (it goes to an archive folder)
  • mark it as read or unread
  • move the message (and in this case the list of folders is displayed after a swipe)
  • favorites (to activate a follow-up on the message)
  • report as spam
  • quick action menu (also accessible from reading the message and which offers to write a reply, perform a transfer, a deletion, a print, etc.)

and it is also possible to choose "none" to avoid operations that would not be desired if your device is not suitable for swiping:

l. Message display mode

Choose between an individual display of messages or a “discussion” / “conversation” mode, which allows you to group your emails by subjects/senders, i.e., group the received emails according to the subject of the discussion, thus the display of the inbox is lighter and the follow-up of the messages of the different participants of the conversation is easier to do:

m. Account management

Allows you to delete the Infomaniak account (after confirmation of reading the important warning). Also refer to this other guide.
