Just what the doctor ordered – a common Inbox for (almost) all messaging apps

Posted on October 13, 2014 by

The world is full of messaging apps. …and the list keeps growing. With all our friends & colleagues on different apps, it can become very frustrating to constantly log in & out of each & every one of those apps. Your fiancé, for example, only uses SMS while your classmate uses WhatsApp. Your brother is solely into Facebook Messenger, while your sister is into Snapchat. OMG!

Well, fret no more.

A recently launched mobile app called Snowball is something that the doctor ordered for tacking the “message apps fatigue”. Snowball, currently in beta, offers a single Inbox for all messages from all the apps. Thus, it negates the need to check every app to keep up.

Here are the many things you can do with this new Android app:

  • Send out a quick response in your favorite messaging app
  • See all messages from all your favorite social apps in 1 place
  • Organizes your messages from the apps with a single, easy-to-access place to view everything
  • Open Snowball from anywhere on your phone. Your friends are always just one tap away

Snowball supports: Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, Snapchat, SMS, Hangouts, Twitter, Line, WeChat, & Slack. These guys promise of adding more messaging apps, soon. But do remember, Snowball is not a messaging app, it is a “meeting place” of all such apps, manner of speaking.

The new Android app is the work of Anish Acharya & Jeson Patel. The duo has worked in various companies such as Google, Microsoft, Amazon & SocialDeck.

Launched in early October this year, the early testing of this app was positive, after which it was decided to widen the beta & make this new Android app available to users worldwide.

Snowball has already raised US $2.3 million in funds from First Round Capital, Google Ventures, Felicis Ventures, Lowercase Capital, Metamorphic Ventures, Golden Venture Partners, Cherubic Ventures, David Lee, & various other angels.
