On Android, Settings > Contacts and Settings > Calendar get a "Sync to
this device" section with a row per signed-in account. This makes device
sync reachable:
- The switch asks for the contacts or calendar permission after a short
explanation (denied: sync stays off and says why, with a link to the
app's system settings once Android stops asking), creates the
account's Bulwark account in Android and syncs right away. Turning it
off uploads what the device changed first and asks before anything
that could not go up is lost. The switch shows Android's own state, so
sync turned off in Android Settings shows as paused.
- Which address books or calendars sync: the personal account's are on
by default, shared ones and the Trusted Senders book off; read-only
ones are marked, and a note says when another signed-in account
already syncs the same shared one.
- The address book new contacts from other apps go to, who reminds of
synced events (the calendar app or Bulwark, asked when calendar sync
is turned on while Bulwark's reminders are on), and how often Android
syncs on its own (every 15 minutes to every 6 hours, or not at all).
- "Sync now", the last sync with its result, or the error with what to
do about it ("Sign in again", "Grant access", "Review deletions"), and
a link to the account in Android Settings.
- Accounts the app signed out while they synced are listed with "Sign
in again" and "Remove from this device".
The settings search finds both sections. iOS, and Android builds without
the native module, show nothing new.
Checked: the collection listing and status tests, the settings search
and i18n tests, `npm run typecheck`, `npm test` and `npm run i18n:check`
on this commit, and on the API 32 emulator with usera on the local
server: the section, turning contacts sync on (Android account created,
152 contacts on the device, one per card) and the status after a run.
Bulwark Mobile
Beta - work in progress. Many features are unfinished or rough. Expect bugs, missing functionality, and breaking changes between releases. Do not rely on this for primary email yet.
React Native (Expo SDK 54) client for Bulwark Webmail - a JMAP-based mail, calendar, and contacts app.
What works today
- Sign in to any JMAP server (e.g. Stalwart)
- Multiple accounts
- Email list, threads, compose
- Calendar (basic)
- Contacts (basic)
- Push notifications via the Bulwark relay - FCM by default, or UnifiedPush (e.g. ntfy) for devices without Google Play services
- In-app sideload updates from GitHub Releases
What's missing or rough
- iOS builds, but push notifications and client certificates are Android-only so far
- S/MIME, plugins, themes - UI stubs only (filters & rules, the vacation responder and file storage are real implementations)
- Calendar editing is partial; contacts editing is basic
- No Play Store distribution yet (sideload APK from Releases); iOS ships via TestFlight
Run locally
npm install
npx expo start
Then press a for Android, i for iOS, or scan the QR with Expo Go.
