What Penvia does differently
- One chat per person instead of one list of every email.
- Newsletters, receipts and alerts sorted into Updates automatically.
- Every attachment from every account in Files.
- Orbit shows who is waiting for your reply and whose reply you are waiting for, for everyone; Remind me if no reply (Pro); Send later and Undo Send for everyone.
What stays the same
Your accounts, addresses and folders stay with your provider. You can use Penvia and Apple Mail side by side; read state and sent mail stay in sync.
Questions
Do I have to stop using Apple Mail?
No. Both apps read the same accounts, so you can use them side by side.
Is Penvia as private as Apple Mail?
Penvia has no mail server: your device talks directly to your provider, with no ads and no tracking.
