During August 2023, we managed to reach a significant Thunderbird for Android milestone: the beta release of our new account setup interface!
Curious how to get that shiny new “Supernova” look? Here’s a step-by-step guide on activating Vertical Layout, Cards View, and Tags Mode in Thunderbird 115.
Apparently our July has been so busy that we didn’t find the time to write up the progress report for June. But a late report is better than no report! Let’s check in on the development of Thunderbird for Android.
The road to Thunderbird 115 “Supernova” has been a long one, and we’re confident you’ll love the final result. If you’re already using Thunderbird 115, you may have noticed a feature that is conspicuously absent: Thunderbird Sync.
Our journey to transform K-9 Mail to Thunderbird for Android involves more than just improving the user interface and adding new features. K-9 Mail is already an important part of the open source ecosystem on Android, and because it lays the foundation for the future of Thunderbird on Android, we believe it’s important to invest in the security health of the software.
With this year’s version, we’re delivering much more than just another yearly release. Supernova represents a modernized overhaul of the software – both visually and technically – while retaining the familiarity and flexibility you expect from Thunderbird.
We asked Jon Hicks, the creator of the original Firefox and Thunderbird logos, to re-imagine his iconic design in light of Thunderbird’s exciting future.
We’re back with another progress report as we continue improving K-9 Mail for its transformation to Thunderbird for Android! We spent most of the previous month preparing for a new stable release. In April 2023, we finally published K-9 Mail 6.600.
Last month we reported on the progress we made in turning K-9 Mail into Thunderbird for Android. Since then a month has passed, so it’s time for another detailed update. Let’s dive in!
While K-9 Mail / Thunderbird for Android is developed in the open, following its development on GitHub can be somewhat tedious for a casual observer. So we’re trying something new and summarizing the most notable things that happened in the past month.
Thunderbird 115 “Supernova” will be intuitive and welcoming to new users, while remaining familiar and comfortable for veteran users. See how we’re accomplishing that balance with a preview of the new Folder Pane.
“Why does Thunderbird look so old, and why does it take so long to change?” Let’s answer that burning question with some important history, and a look into the future.
The path to bringing you a great email experience on Android devices begins with K-9 Mail, which joined the Thunderbird product family earlier this year. As we work towards a modern redesign of desktop Thunderbird, we’re also working towards improving K-9 Mail as it begins its transition to Thunderbird mobile!
