The Fastmail mobile app
The official Fastmail mobile app is the best way to use Pobox Webmail on your iPhone, iPad, iPod or Android device.
The app works on iOS 11.x+ and Android 5.x+ devices, and is available to paid Pobox Mailstore accounts. Users that don't meet these requirements can still use the mobile web interface at https://www.pobox.com.
The Fastmail mobile app is accessible to Pobox Mailstore customers. When using the app, Mailstore users have access to services available via the webmail screen. Other services such as spam folder, aliases, addresses, profile information, must be accessed from the Pobox home screen.

Troubleshooting
"Upgrade your app" screen
In November 2022, we ended support for Versions 2 and 3 of the Fastmail app. Customers using these older versions of the app will need to upgrade to Version 4. Please see our Migration to app.fastmail.com help page for more information.
