Mailbox
Despite the efforts of Google to launch on the platform iOS its own application of Gmail, other tools continue to appear to manage our account and emailsOn this occasion we are talking about Mailbox, a very complete application that combines the benefits of a correct email manager with an application of tasks An all-in-one to don't forget to answer any messageor leave us any task unanswered.
However, Mailbox is currently in beta or testing phase So much so that there is waiting list to be able to activate the application. Apparently, the operation of Mailbox focuses on the cloud, and being still in development, its creators do not want to saturate the service That is why they have created a system of waiting list to control the number of users and the proper functioning of Mailbox although, of course, they hope to be able to expand the service and stop depending on the waiting list in a future.
Once inside the application, the lucky ones who get the activation number will be able to include their Gmail information to receive inMailbox all your messages.These appear on the home screen or inbox, where they can be accessed for consultation. In addition, of course, we can write our own emails, attach files such as photos and send them to multiple recipients. Up to here everything that can be expected from a mail manager.
The surprising part, and for what really draws attention to this application, is its gmanagement as tasks And it is that , through a few simple gestures on the screen we can organize emails as things to do, ordering them according to importance or deadline. For example, we have another one of those spam or advertising emails that we are not interested in. We slide our finger from left to right over it, a simple pause, and the delete symbol appears, while if we do without pause the mail is archived as seen or done, thus disappearing from this tray.

Even more curious is making the same gesture from right to left In this case the email is cataloged as pending, making a window appear on the screen to choose when we want them to appear again: later today, tomorrow, next week, over the weekend, etc This makes it much easier to know which quotes we have responded to and which issues we still have to do
In short, an application with a different and very useful concept but it will still take time to reach most users For now all that remains is to download the application and get a waiting number to be able to use this application as soon as possible application. The good news is that Mailbox is completely downloadable freeFor now it is only available for iPhone, although the version for iPad may be coming soon. It can be obtained free of charge through App Store
