Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Proximus Mail at none against Mailo's shown. Proximus Mail also leads on rating (4.0 vs 3.7) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Mailo's advantage is review sentiment (29% vs 11%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 16.0). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Proximus Mail holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 3 and 3 respectively.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Mailo ships an update every 7 months, Proximus Mail every 6 months. Both last shipped on October 23, 2026.
