I would away - EM client scans your email for content
Oct 2026: the email client forcefully scans all your emails for content using some sort of AI. Even though you can use the option to turn it off, it does not actually turn it off. PUSH notifications are disabled but nothing changed.
The Support claim that it doesn't, but it still scans the emails and applies tags based on the content. This is not a privacy focused app, and in fact it's quite the opposite it is anti-privacy. Under no circumstances would I recommend this email unless you wish to give your email content to this company.

Disabled Touch Screen on iPhone
Sucks. Touch screen disabled on app after update and reinstall.
good but...
the inbox refreshing is ridiculously slow, even for just 1 account
Finally found it - the perfect email client?!
I have been searching forever, seriously. I’ve been on iPhone, Android, Windows, Linux, back to iPhone… I finally found what I’ve been looking for.
An unrestricted, multi-IMAP, responsive, modern email client that “syncs” well between desktop and mobile.
Love the clean layout and organization. Puts all the platform built-ins to shame.

Not integrating properly
I’ve tested eM Client and used it for over a year. After this long trial, I’ve decided to move back to the Apple Mail app on both iPhone and Mac. The client never integrated smoothly into my workflow — syncing was consistently slow, and recently it even started returning previously deleted emails back into my inbox. At this point, Apple Mail is simply more reliable for everyday use.

Sync too slow
I love eM Client on desktop, and have a paid subscription, but I’m switching to Canary Mail because eM Client’s iOS app is painfully slow syncing every time you open it up. Sometimes I need to access an email quick and I’ve been having to use Apple Mail instead of waiting around (up to 30 secs!) for em Client to update. Pity — I like the desktop apps so much but I need a good iOS app too. Snoozing doesn’t sync between desktop and iOS either for iCloud.

Email Issue with was resolved
An issue with this app unable to download and display mail was resolved by deleting the app and doing a hard restart of my iPad. Then reinstall. The app is quite good and it has replaced the Apple Mail app or my email on my iPads and phones.
Come on
Editing to add: I emailed you people prior to this review with these concerns, and you said the exact same thing, none of which fixes the issue. I also told you I’ll just leave an honest review, so I honestly don’t know why you’d simply scribble the same type of nonsense into here unless you just want people to THINK you’re responsive with alleged solutions. Original review below.
There is no reason - none whatsoever - for A: inbox refreshes to take such a pathetically long time; and B: basic search to take such a pathetically long time. I have seen a number of “responses” from devs saying that it’s being worked on, but as of now that just seems to be a balloon full of air instead of anything of substance.

Excellent!
I have the desktop version which is great as well. This mobile version is loaded with great features. Definitely blows away the other mobile email apps I have tried.
Slow and unstable at times
Areas for improvement: a) iOS client is v-e-r-y s-l-o-w to retrieve Outlook and Gmail accounts (especially Outlook) and at times becomes unstable when sending AND receiving - your Mac and Windows desktop clients work well in comparison, b) combined inbox does not work in iOS - need to click on individual accounts to view inboxes (annoying), c) AI features: personally, don’t care about these (I do not use the slop generator, I appreciate grammar check/continued spell check that is not intrusive). LOVE your security/priavacy features (ex. your pixel handling) - please maintain this as your focus. Recommended recipe for success: please focus on: 1) security and 2) stability, then 3) whatever else you like - e.g. AI slop (in that order).

Latest Version Doesn’t work on iPad
The latest version of this app doesn’t work. Mail on primary and secondary accounts only displays one mail item. Incredibly, the same mail item.
I reinstalled it…worked normally for two days, then the same problem. It’s serious and it’s unusable in its current form.

so much better than the usual options
gmail stalls out constantly. apple mail also bugs out all the time. but finally tried this one and what a breath of fresh air! it’s almost weird having a reliable email client :)
Great features but app is unreliable and unusable
I've used em client on Windows since it began and pay for it. Great features and design. It is my favorite desktop email client by far. It is also quite good on Android.
The iOS implementation which I run in iPad mini with iOS 26.6 is unusable.
It freezes. It doesn't send emails reliably. It takes forever to download emails. It's formatting goes weird, with message headers in the account view inexplicably indented at random. I need a reliable, predictable, stable email client for my work.
I'm very saddened that I have to go back to the inferior Gmail app.
If anyone reads this, I suggest also that you find a way to implement the official Gmail API like Wundermail does. It will affect problems to do with aliases (across the desktop Windows environment too).
Thanks to the team at em client, and I hope that you are able to get the iOS version to the same excellent standard of your Windows client.

No useful calendar
I gave it a one star review to try to get the attention of the developers because they don’t seem to get it. If we get a calendar link in an email, we can only put it in a stupid local Calendar on that device. What use is that? And their share option doesn’t go to Calendar, as any competent programmer would do. Seems to be no way to add to your calendar.

Calendar
Can you improve the calendar? Now the calendar do not shows days number?
Finally a better Mail client
so far the best proper email client I have come across for iOS. Previously I used K9 when I had Android. eM Client is as good as K9.
I did some tests to verify that the IMAP & SMTP connections were sent from my IP address when using this client and these were, instead of being proxy through somebody else's service like so many other clients do.
I can actually see the full source of the emails and head as I so wish. Push notifications don't work unless you use the push notification through their servers, but unfortunately this is only limitation of iOS. So far so good.

So much better than outlook
Took off a star because there doesn’t seem to be a watch for reply option on mobile but otherwise this app is great, I’ve completely switched over from outlook which is nothing but frustrating. Also needs a way to create an event from a date in emails
An Amazing Email Client
This email program is the email program I've been looking for for years. It's clean and modern looking, full featured, and very easy to use.
I love how easy it is to drag your emails wherever you need them from directly onto your desktop to placing them in whatever folders you have set up. This was a several step process with my old email program.
If I had any complaints at all is that with no contact number or chat option, customer service is a little hard to come by. The only option you have as a free customer is through email, but they have proven to be pretty responsive.
I'm thrilled to have stumbled across this email client. It's exactly what I've been looking for and I'm really happy I found it.
