[Open-Xchange App Suite Maintenance Announcements]

Dear Open-Xchange Customers,

This new release provides an update for OX App Suite v8.20. With every release of Open-Xchange's products we try to enhance functionality, improve stability, refine the user experience, and make operations easier.

Key Enhancements in OX App Suite v8.20

- Introducing OX App Suite for Mobile
This is the first phase of many updates to come, all designed to make using OX App Suite on mobile devices even easier and more intuitive. From this release, it is now possible to add OX App Suite to your mobile, and even desktop, as a stand-alone application. It can then be launched directly from your home screen. In addition, Open-Xchange has subtly redesigned various elements of the UI to better match the mobile form-factor and experience. The redesigned components in this release include: an enhanced mobile mail UI, updated compose windows, new launcher design and faster switching between apps.

To try this new feature, simply open OX App Suite in your browser and:
On Android with Chrome, tap the three dots in the top right, and select "Install app".
On iOS with Safari, tap the share icon at the bottom, and choose "Add to Home Screen" to install.
After that, you will see the OX App Suite logo on your home screen and the app is ready to use. 

- Add new Mail Categories
As introduced in a previous version, users can view various message categories displayed in tabs above the inbox list. They have the option to let OX App Suite automatically organize their emails for them. The latest version introduces the option to add further personal categories to the overview list.
