If you are having trouble with your ProtonMail mobile app, please try the following debugging steps to fix the app.
1. If you run into issues, try logging out and logging back in. Closing and re-opening the app may also work.
2. If issues persist, try clearing the local data cache. This can be down through the settings page as shown below.
3. As a last resort, you can uninstall and re-install the application.
4. If you continue to experience issues, please use the report bug feature in the application as described in this link: https://protonmail.com/support/knowledge-base/bug-report-form-within-ios-and-android/
5. If you cannot use the report bug feature, get in touch with us via this link https://protonmail.com/support-form. Please include the following information:
- iOS or Android
- Device Type (Nexus 5, iPhone 6, etc)
- Operating System Version (Android 5.1, iOS 8, etc)
- Application Version number (To find your version number, follow the instructions here: https://protonmail.com/support/knowledge-base/mobile-app-version-number-ios-and-android/).
I was able to install the new beta app on my tablet running stock android but not on my rooted phone running a number of customizations. After multiple attempts I was not able to install the new beta using the Crashlytics app so I did some research and found some posts on Stack Overflow that solved my issue. It turns out that the Crashlytics app will not install on a device that has a screen dimmer app or an ad blocker. I had both! I use Adgard to block ads and f.lux to adjust my screen brightness. Disabling those allowed me to install the new beta. I think it would be a good idea to add notes on this to the troubleshooting guide.

cannot log in to my email account. When I click on Log In all it does is: the symbol is going around and”Loading ProtonMail” is all it’s doing. I have walked away and went to do other things, come back and that is still all happening; I have went out and come back, and still the same thing, I have turned the computer off and back on and it still does the same. Can and will someone help with this issue?

Running the latest Nougat on Motorola ZForce Droid downloads are NOT in “downloads”. Can’t find them. Where do you think they are?
I’m looking for pdf’s that downloaded and offered app choice to view but files can’t be found.
Also, recovery email shows on desktop but not populated at all in mobile.
Thanks for Protonmail.

I’m noticing that if I log into my account online, I see 20 or so archived messages – but on the app, it only shows 3 messages? Anyone else having this problem? I’ve logged in/out.. killed the app, reinstalled it, etc, etc. and it keeps showing the same behavior. I’m on ios 9.3.5 and protonmail version 1.5.3 (1702)

This will be fixed in the next release of the mobile app.

Can I download ProtonMail Mobile App on my window phone and laptop???

Unfortunately, we do not have a Windows Phone app. You can access ProtonMail on your laptop via our web client, or using a desktop email client via the ProtonMail Bridge (https://protonmail.com/bridge/) for premium users.

hello,
when using the Android app i can only log into one account, but i have 2 one is proton.ch and the other is proton.com is the a way to access both on the app?
0
The Android app does not support logging into multiple ProtonMail accounts at the same time. If you have multiple alias addresses in one account, they all share the same mailbox and you can read messages for all addresses without the need to log in to a different account.
