[EPIC] Material You/Material 3 Design
Would be very nice to see the app with a more modern feel. My suggestion is to bring it up to par with Material You design.
Also in the actual screen that displays the mail you are reading ,that screen feels very inconsistent and outdated to the other menus already. Especially if viewed as plaintext only.
A material you coat of paint over K-9 Mail would be lovely, especially with the Thunderbird integration coming up
It should be noted that Material 3 is dependent on migration of the entire UI to Jetpack Compose, which constitutes a substantial amount of work. It seems that this constitutes a long-term plan for K-9, although it is acknowledged that there are some tasks involving rewriting some parts of the application (#6974, #6975).
What makes you think the entire UI needs to be migrated to Jetpack Compose?
I recently came across information in Google documents indicating that Material 3 can be applied with Jetpack Compose using the MaterialTheme but didn't find any official information about Material 3 in the XML way. some parameters like dynamic color scheme and other modern Material You UI components are available in compose library.
If you make statements like this, please link to sources.
Material 3 is supported well enough with XML-based UIs. See the branch material_3_experiments for early experiments.
While some things might be harder than necessary, I don't think switching the whole app to Jetpack Compose is a requirement for using Material 3.
I'd like to say i'm not interested in a Material You design for this app, as Material You uses more space on the screen for the same amount of information. For users like me who have a phone with a not so big screen, this is not good news.
@Cwpute k9 has a compact view, and nothing in M3 says you can't have a compact view in a M3 app

@tamirat67: Please use the forum for support requests.
Not quite, Material Design 3 refers to the overall design language (shapes, layouts, etc) while Material You specifically refers to their color palette system.

you can change scale in settings -> display -> display size and text
Ltt.rs has a pretty good looking Material 3/Material You user interface
Maybe K9-Mail could do something similar.
I feel like it'd make most sense to take a look at how Google does Gmail first. Very similar based off the pictures. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.gm
But either way yes, agreed. It makes things feel a lot more consistent with Android 14
I would like to contribute to designs, I would like to create updated screens
