I don't like incorrect unread counts lying around.
I then cannot distinguish between truly unread emails and the emails that I swiped as Done in Inbox, but still left unread in Gmail.
- Ajedi32 8y agoThe unread count is correct; you didn't really _read_ those emails. The problem is that the UI is placing undue emphasis on the number of emails you didn't read; that's a pretty irrelevant statistic. Half of the emails I receive don't need to be read; just glancing at the subject is enough. Inbox got it right by not showing unread counts and just letting you mark emails as done when they're no longer needed.
- daveFNbuck 8y agoUnder your definition, the unread count is too low. Gmail counts something as read after you load its contents, not after you read it.
