  1. Sorting emails by sender

    Sorting emails by sender is, own my opinion, a basic function of every email client. It helps to sort through emails quickly and clear unwanted emails or move them to folders. I find it amazing that Canary Mail does not have this feature. It is also noted that Canary Mail's own website promotes sorting emails by sender (https://canarymail.io/blog/manage-and-organize-emails/): 'Group by the sender: Another way to organize your inbox is by grouping messages from specific senders together. This can be particularly useful if you work with a lot of different people and want to quickly find messages from a particular colleague or client.' So, why is this function not there?

  2. Auto Wrap Text When Resizing Window or Changing Zoom

    It would be helpful to have the text in the reading window auto wrap when the window is either resized or when the zoom level is changed in lieu of having to use the horizontal scroll bar to read emails.

  3. Out of Office Responder

    Out of office replies would be very useful when OOO. This is an important feature for those using Canary for work.

  4. Account Colour Prominence

    Showing account colours only adds a very thin bar the the side of the email in the inbox. It doesn’t really help that much. I’d like to see this bar a bit bigger and in the left hand side next to the avatar to increase visibility.

  5. Hide email accounts from unified inbox

    I have multiple accounts that I use mostly for spam and registering for accounts I'm not gonna use much - I don't want to see their emails in my main inbox as they're usually not what I'm interested in, but I'd still like quick access to them (which is why I have them added in Canary)

  6. Apple Reminders integration

    A simple “Create Reminder from Email” would be awesome. I’d even settle for a Shortcuts integration where I could just forward an email to a specific address and it create a Reminder for me.

  7. Set up Reminder to Follow up an Email

    You can set it up for mails with the condition that only sends you a reminder if they dont replay or send a reminder even if they replay

  8. Ability to create MS Teams & Google Meet online meeting invite directly from calendar

    Many service provider (including EM Client, Super Human & Outlook) have this feature of creating direct meeting link from calendar. Please integrate the same.

  9. Apple’s Reminder integration

    Congrats re: integrations. This is game changer. Can we expect an integration with Apple’s Reminder anytime soon? Also, this would be awesome to have integrations options in swipes for quicker access/process. Best

  10. Full-screen message viewing on iPad

    Want option to be able to read individual emails full-screen on iPad (like on iPhone) vs. split-screen with the list of emails. Long, text-heavy emails hard to read on iPad half-screen, especially b/c no apparent way to adjust font size. I'm trying out Canary as Spark alternative and liking what I see so far...but if not fixed, this may be a deal-breaker.

  12. Disable the calendar or use the system default

    It would be nice to be able to disable the integrated calendar to instead use the system default calendar.

  13. Add an "Unsubscribe" shortcut

    For some reason there's no "Unsubscribe" option in the "Messages" menu for Canary. (See "Canary Messages Menu" screenshot attached) Also, under Settings > General > Shortcuts there is no option to set a shortcut for "Unsubscribe" (See "Canary Settings - Shortcuts" screenshot attached) Please add this feature as it will make it so much quicker/easier to Unsubscribe. When I'm working through emails, I have the "E" key set to "Archive" and the "W" key set to "Delete" and I would like to just as easily hit a key with my left hand, instead of having to use the trackpad/mouse to go click the triple dot menu, and then hit the "Unsubscribe" link.

  14. Calendar Compatibility

    Hello. Why not have Alexa, Google Calendar, Jorte calendar, Todoist and other big name calendars (ran out of names) able to connect to your calendar?? Thank you an thank you for your timely response

  15. Create Event From Email

    I often find myself needing to create an event and having to manually copy some of the context of an email to the notes of the event or to attach the same attachments as the received email has. Let’s say I bought movie tickets for my family and would like to create a family event in a shared calendar with the time, place and PDFs of the tickets in the calendar event attachments. It would be awesome to auto-magically glean the time, place, duration of the event from the context of the email, but most of all i would love not to have to download the attachments only to attach them to the calendar event.
