Let $λ$ denote the Liouville function. We prove that $$\sum_{X \leq x < 2X} \sup_{α\in \mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}} \bigg\lvert\!\sum_{x \leq n < x+H} λ(n) e(nα)\bigg\rvert = o(HX)$$ as $X\to \infty$, in the regime $H = H(X) \geq \exp((\log X)^{2/5+\varepsilon})$. This improves upon a result of Walsh towards the Fourier uniformity conjecture.
