Proton mail android: Inline attachments + Seeing / removing existing attachments (lemmy.ca)

On Android, I noticed two major features that are missing that make it extremely difficult to use the mobile version for me:

I can't add inline attachments. This makes communicating with clients and pointing at stuff impossible on mobile.
I can't browse existing attachments to view and remove them. This means I have to start my reply all over again and delete the draft if I uploaded the wrong thing, and I can't validate that I did upload the right thing.

Also, pasting into a message body is broken on the beta, but working on stable (the only option is "select all")

There's also no rich text, which is sometimes painful when writing long emails on the go, and it means I can't bold stuff to indicate importance.

I also had issues with sent emails from drafts where a draft was created on mobile, finished on the web and sent, the mobile client will show as if I had sent the unfinished mobile draft, which sent me into a panic last night haha.

For now there is the web app. It works well on mobile.

I'll give it a shot, thanks! It just sucks to be paying so much for a service and not even have a functional mobile app, nor be able to connect something like K9 to it.
