What is the advantage of the Inbox App over just using the archive button and maintaining only a few important emails in the regular inbox?
I did briefly try the Inbox app when it first came out but found the automatic sorting meant I occasionally missed important emails. If you use the regular inbox and the archive button you can at least see everything coming in and decide if it is important. I've been aggressive about disabling email from services that offer their own inbox (Facebook, Asana, Github etc) and unsubscribing from automated email lists - that helps limit how much I am archiving.
- thedevil 10y agoReminders and snoozing are key differences from gmail. Also, I disabled bundling right away after I started using Inbox. The bundling is useful sometimes but I thought it more pain than it's worth. Perhaps that's why more people don't use Inbox.
