Version 1.12 of the ProtonMail Android app makes it easy for anyone to manage multiple ProtonMail accounts right on their phone. This feature allows you to be logged into multiple ProtonMail accounts at the same time, and easily switch between their inboxes.
Multi-account support
We have received numerous requests from small- and medium-sized business owners, as well as several larger non-profit organizations, for multi-account support. Having one email account for work and another for friends and family can help individuals stay organized. But business executives often have to manage multiple, role-based email accounts, like support@, sales@, and admin@. Until now, accessing multiple accounts on your Android meant constantly logging in and out. That hassle is now over.
Support for multiple accounts is built into the Android app, allowing you to quickly switch between your accounts. This makes it easy for you to use ProtonMail to handle your business communications, even when you’re on the go. Users can have one Free account and an unlimited number of paid accounts logged in at the same time within the app.

You can effortlessly switch from one account to another…

and also add or remove accounts from the app.
Updated Settings menu
We have redesigned the Settings menu to make it easier for multi-account users to manage their different accounts. The settings are now split between account settings (which are settings for the account you are using) and app settings, which apply to the entire app and all the accounts active on it.

App settings let you control the options that affect the app no matter which account is logged in.

And Account settings allow you to access all the options for the account you are currently using.
This update makes it even easier for you to stay on top of your emails on Android. Download ProtonMail for Android and start sending and receiving emails from multiple accounts in privacy and security.
Moving forward, you can expect many more changes for ProtonMail Android, including the upcoming addition of encrypted text search and a redesign of the entire app for a more modern look and feel.

Is this available in the iOS app as well? If not, when will it be?
Yep! We’re working on it now, and we’ll post an announcement as soon as it’s available.
When will this be available in the iOS app?
Hi Mike! This is coming to iOS soon. Our team is working on it now.
Now all we need is an option to finally disable the swipe actions.
Will that feature be available on iOS as well ?
Hi Greg! Yes, multi-account support is also planned for iOS.
Can you provide step by step instructions on how to actually add another email account?
I must be missing something that is obvious to everybody else, but for the life of me I can’t figure it out.
I’m a little baffled why you deleted my comment where I asked for instructions. I found the answer anyway. You can use it to make your article useful:
Swipe from the left in the app, or press on the burger menu, then click on the account name on top (not on “settings”), then press on “manage accounts,” then “add account.”
Hi dbx! We don’t usually delete comments, we just hadn’t gotten a chance to approve yours yet. Thank you for providing this info!
Is the f-droid publishing plan when it’s re-done still in effect?
Yes, we’re still planning to make Proton apps available through F-droid.
Weird Question, Will the app ever have a dark mode?
Excellent question. It’s coming with the eventual app redesigns, and we’re excited for it too.
Hello
that all sounds very cool and great for the user experience but when am I gonna get that darkmode feature that was promised to be implemented very soon? 🙁
Really waiting for that, might even consider buying upgrading from my free plan.
Kind Regards
We’re looking forward to dark mode too! It’s coming with Version 4.0, which is now in beta.
I realize your development team is busy but as an Amazon Kindle Fire use I am wondering if you are planning an secure app for that platform?
Currently I am just using a link to my webmail account as I believe the default email servers go through Amazon and Outlook for Android goes through Microsoft.
Thanks for your support! Unfortunately, we’re not currently working on a Kindle app.
Why was Android given priority on this, and why not wait until there was feature parity between the two platforms?
Hey Timothy, good question. To increase efficiency, our Android and iOS teams release new features as quickly as possible, rather than waiting for the other team to be ready. Multi-account support is coming for iOS as well. Sorry for the wait, and thank you for your patience!
