Modify the Infomaniak Mail configuration (iOS / Android)
This guide concerns the Infomaniak Mail application, which allows you to manage your emails on iOS / Android smartphones.
Accessing the Application Settings
To open the Infomaniak Mail application settings on your smartphone:
- tap on the top left of your inbox:
- click on the gear icon at the top of the opened panel:
- you can manage settings from the displayed screen:
a. Choosing a Signature
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 the configured ones.
b. Locking the Application
This option allows you to protect the application with one of the locking methods of your smartphone, which allows you to stay connected to the Infomaniak mailbox with your user account but prevents access to Infomaniak Mail by a third party when the application is no longer in the open applications.
If your device has a fingerprint reader, you can use this method to activate the lock:
c. Device Notifications
You can configure notifications for each of the linked email addresses in the application:
d. Contacts & Calendars Synchronization
For now, this synchronization is managed externally, follow for example the assistant https://config.infomaniak.com/.
e. Conversation List Density
The display mode can be compact, normal, or wide.
f. Theme
The theme allows you to choose a dark mode display or, conversely, a light display black on white. This display can also be set according to the device theme (thus allowing you to resume any system settings that would vary the display depending on the time).
g. Accent Color
The accent color is either blue or pink.
h. Swipe Actions
Swipe actions allow you to define what operation Infomaniak Mail should perform if you swipe your finger on a message from right to left or left to right in the list:
The possible actions are:
- delete the message (it goes to the trash)
- archive the message (it goes to an archive folder)
- mark the message as read or unread
- move the message (and in this case the list of folders is displayed after a swipe)
- favorites (to activate a tracking on the message)
- mark as spam
- quick actions menu (also accessible from reading the message and which offers to write a reply, forward, delete, 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:
i. Message Display Mode
Choose between a message tracking display (conversation mode) or individual.
j. Display External Content
Choose between automatic or on-demand external content display (images...)
Application Language
The language is based on the language of the smartphone on which the Infomaniak Mail application is installed and not on the language set on your user account.
