Split Group Avatars changes how group email conversations appear in your inbox list. When enabled, emails with multiple participants display a combined avatar showing multiple people, making it easy to identify group conversations at a glance. Instead of seeing a single icon, you see a visual representation of the people involved in the conversation.

Tips
- Enable this feature if you frequently participate in group conversations and want to identify them quickly
- Split avatars make it easier to distinguish between one-on-one emails and group discussions
- This setting only affects how emails appear in your inbox list, not when reading individual messages
- The feature works best when your contacts have profile pictures set
- This setting is device-specific and will not sync to your other devices
Troubleshooting
Split avatars are not appearing for group emails
- Verify that the setting is enabled in Customize Appearance
- Make sure you have avatars enabled in your appearance settings
- The feature only applies to emails with multiple participants
The split avatars look different than expected
- If contact photos are not available, initials are used instead
- The display may vary based on how many participants are in the conversation
I want to revert to simple avatars
- Simply turn off the Split Group Avatars setting
- Your inbox will immediately show single avatars for all emails
The inbox seems slower with this feature enabled
- On older devices, rendering multiple avatars may take slightly more resources
- If you experience performance issues, consider disabling this feature
