Inbox: new email app by the people who brought you Gmail

new email appCall it the re-invention of the email or perhaps, the re-birth of Gmail specifically? Google, or to be more precise, the Gmail team, has launched (for now, by Invite only) app, separate from Gmail, called “Inbox,”, which has been years in the making. And needless to state, build from lessons learnt from Gmail.

It’s for the Chrome browser, Android devices & the iPhone for now. The email is over 30 years old, but instead of fading away, it hasbeen going from strength to strength. Today, it is part of that small computing device that all of us carry in our pockets, the smartphone.

Writing about Inbox on the official Gmail blog, none other than Sundar Pichai, Sr. VP, Android, Chrome & Apps, says: ….with this evolution comes new challenges: we get more email now than ever, important information is buried inside messages, and our most important tasks can slip through the cracks—especially when we’re working on our phones. For many of us, dealing with email has become a daily chore that distracts from what we really need to do—rather than helping us get those things done. If this all sounds familiar, then Inbox is for you. Or more accurately, Inbox works for you.

The new email app has some interesting features such as Snooze, that helps your email remind you of your life’s priorities, & Bundles, which is dealing with similar mail. Nothing that we have not seen in other email apps featured on this Site before.

Get rid of unwanted newsletters from your Inbox using the Unsubscriber app

Getting newsletters is something that all of us have got used to. But sometimes, we end up requesting emails that turn out to be “unwanted” pieces of word junk, which we would gladly get rid off at a later stage but don’t, either because of lack of time or knowledge.

Now, there’s a Web app called Unsubscribe that does this for you. It works not only with Gmail but also with Yahoo, AOL, Outlook & the iCloud. Once you sign up, it will create an “Unsubscribe” label on the left side of your Inbox. Then, all you need to do is just move unwanted messages to this folder, & the app takes care of the rest. Simple way of simplyfying your Inbox.

What’s more, new emails from that sender are also routed to your Unsubscribe folder. The app then notifies the sender that you want to be removed from their list.

Unsubscriber has been developed by the Texas, US-based OtherInBox, makers of innovative email apps that help sort your electronic mail better & more efficiently.
