Roadmap

What's next for Fade

Linked from Settings, Roadmap

Fade is a temp mail app for iPhone. This is the board: what has not been started, what is being built now, and what is already in your hands. It is here so you can see where the app is going before it gets there, and tell us if we have the order wrong.

Yet to be picked up

3

Save a message you want to keep

Star a message and it stays, even after the address it arrived at is gone.

Pro

Export your saved mail

Everything you kept from your reserved addresses, out in one file, filtered to a date range.

Pro

Forward a message on

Opens your normal mail app with the text in the body and any images attached.

Pro

In development

1

Chrome extension

A disposable address and its verification code inside the signup form you are already looking at, without reaching for your phone.

Live in app

6

An address the moment you open it

A working disposable address on launch, with one-tap copy. No signup.

Verification codes pulled out for you

The code is found in the message and surfaced, so you do not have to read the email to get it.

Push the moment mail lands

A notification as it arrives, so you are not sat refreshing an empty inbox.

Addresses that never expire

Reserved aliases that stay yours, alongside the temporary ones.

Pro

An address you choose

Your own name on a Pro domain, instead of a random string.

Pro

Real messages, not flattened text

Mail renders with the sender's formatting, attachments open and save, and remote images stay blocked until you ask.

The last column is a summary, not the full history. Every release and exactly what was in it is on the what's new page.

More on what's next

The three cards in the first column are all the same shift: a temp address is for throwing away, but every so often exactly one message in it is worth keeping.

Save a message you want to keep

A temp inbox is built to disappear, which is the point of it, right up until a receipt, a licence key or a booking reference lands in one. Today the only way to hold on to that is to screenshot it before the timer runs out.

Saving will be per message and always your explicit choice. Everything you do not save still goes when the address expires.

Export what you have saved

A date range so you can pull a single month or a quarter instead of all of it at once. This matters when the mail you kept is the paper trail for something else: an expense claim, a return, a dispute.

Forward a message on

Moving something out of Fade and into a real conversation should be one tap, not copy, paste, and re-attach the image by hand.

All three are Fade Pro features. They are the ones that make sense there: Pro is already the half of the app about addresses that stay, so the tools for keeping mail belong next to them.

Tell us what to build first

The order on this board is a guess at what matters most. If it is wrong for you, say so at help@fade.email. It is a real, monitored mailbox, and one clear reason why a card is blocking you is worth more than a hundred votes.
