Ratings and reviews

100% the email app I've been looking for. Haven't been able to find an app that I really liked since Google killed off Inbox. Bundling works great, easy to tweak if necessary, and setting delivery times keeps inbox from slowly getting filled all day long. First time in years I've been able to get to inbox zero everyday. Any plans for a Wear OS version? Only option really is Outlook, which is better than nothing, but won't use it on phone or Chromebook.

So shortcuts in the settings for the mobile device seems like a mistake, not something we can really use. Multi select is not working at all on phone. Works fine on Desktop. Add Notes is not great, at all. On mobile you can't actually type a note. On mobile and Desktop you can't remove the Add Note. On Desktop it randomly applied Add Note when I bundled the same labels. It also replaced the Label so whatever you do put it assumes you'll add the label name maybe? It's close to good.

Love this. Keen to see how it develops. Would request ability to both pin threads AND flag items. Some emails i just keep handy, so I pin them. Others actually require an action by me and so would normally flag them, but i cant do this yet. Also, the ability to swipe between messages would be good. Please do something about the price. Want to upgrade to a Standard account, but just too expensive. Otherwise, good work so far though.
