  We’re still planning all the details around service workers and the likes, but we intend to continue our tradition of having as much as possible in the normal web app, instead of in the app wrappers (the app being mostly just a wrapper around the web interface). (BTW, the Android app is in the process of being revamped to use the now-sufficiently-capable WebView, which will fix certain issues like the keyboard problems you mention. Not sure what progress is on that.) FastMail’s web interface is already practically a PWA (from a few years before that term was invented), lacking only the ability to start offline (it copes with transient network connections pretty well), and use of the Web Notifications API (which we’ll probably support at some point, but not use in the app because it provides only a subset of the native functionality we currently use).

    I will say having a native wrapper will be worth it even if all it does is allow the quiet hours feature. (That feature, your use of Source San Pro, and the fact that the calendar always starts with the current week was what sold me on your service.) Thanks for the info on the future WebView version.
