It offers a simple and intuitive emailing experience with a stunning design. Users can easily add multiple accounts and benefit from key features such as push notifications, unified folders, and an integrated calendar supporting Hotmail calendar. Supporting all major email providers and protocols like IMAP, POP, and Exchange, Chatmail ensures compatibility and seamless operation. The app provides extensive customization options allowing users to tailor styles and settings to their preferences. Security is prioritized as it uses OAuth 2.0 and does not save emails or passwords outside the Microsoft servers. Chatmail makes emailing easy and efficient, without being directly affiliated with Hotmail. ## Permissions and access ### Permissions - `android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE` - `android.permission.AUTHENTICATE_ACCOUNTS` - `android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS` - `android.permission.INTERNET` - `android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS` - `android.permission.READ_APP_BADGE` - `android.permission.READ_CALENDAR` - `android.permission.READ_CONTACTS` - `android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE` - `android.permission.READ_MEDIA_*` - `android.permission.READ_SYNC_SETTINGS` - `android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED` - `android.permission.REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS` - `android.permission.SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM` - `android.permission.USE_CREDENTIALS` - `android.permission.USE_FINGERPRINT` - `android.permission.VIBRATE` - `android.permission.WAKE_LOCK` - `android.permission.WRITE_CALENDAR` - `android.permission.WRITE_CONTACTS` - `android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE` - `android.permission.WRITE_SYNC_SETTINGS` - `com.amazon.device.messaging.permission.RECEIVE` - `com.anddoes.launcher.permission.UPDATE_COUNT` - `com.android.alarm.permission.SET_ALARM` - `com.android.launcher.permission.READ_SETTINGS` - `com.android.launcher.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS` - `com.android.vending.BILLING` - `com.anymailapp.hotmail.permission.DELETE_MESSAGES` - `com.anymailapp.hotmail.permission.READ_ATTACHMENT` - `com.anymailapp.hotmail.permission.READ_MESSAGES` - `com.anymailapp.hotmail.permission.RECEIVE_ADM_MESSAGE` - `com.google.android.c2dm.permission.RECEIVE` - `com.google.android.finsky.permission.BIND_GET_INSTALL_REFERRER_SERVICE` - `com.htc.launcher.permission.READ_SETTINGS` - `com.htc.launcher.permission.UPDATE_SHORTCUT` - `com.htc.launcher.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS` - `com.huawei.android.launcher.permission.CHANGE_BADGE` - `com.huawei.android.launcher.permission.READ_SETTINGS` - `com.huawei.android.launcher.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS` - `com.huawei.permission.external_app_settings.USE_COMPONENT` - `com.majeur.launcher.permission.UPDATE_BADGE` - `com.oppo.launcher.permission.READ_SETTINGS` - `com.oppo.launcher.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS` - `com.sec.android.provider.badge.permission.READ` - `com.sec.android.provider.badge.permission.WRITE` - `com.sonyericsson.home.permission.BROADCAST_BADGE` - `com.sonymobile.home.permission.PROVIDER_INSERT_BADGE` - `oppo.permission.OPPO_COMPONENT_SAFE` - `org.thialfihar.android.apg.permission.READ_KEY_DETAILS` ## Review summary Users appreciate that Chatmail is ad-free, supports multiple accounts, has a user-friendly layout, and offers customization options.
