I‘d be curious to hear about your general experience w/ hey - from the outside it looks like it has some cool new(er) approaches, but I‘ve seen someone‘s actual full email account in a screencast once and it looked like it‘d get messy with actual heavy usage really quickly and the UX might deteriorate. Any takes?
- save_ferris 6y agoNot OP, but I have a Hey account and I really enjoy it. The screener feature is worth the price alone IMO. The biggest challenge for me was having to re-conceptualize email after switching over since Hey doesn't use traditional email terminology (i.e. "paper trail" vs "archive"). The amount of inbound email I get has dropped immensely due to the screener and my inbox ("imbox") is so much easier to manage with Hey, IMO.
- JeremyBanks 6y agoI find HEY's general workflow very good for my medium-volume personal email. It encouraged me to filter a lot more stuff out of my inbox than I did with Gmail, while spending less time configuring filters. The ability to leave internal comments on external email threads (business accounts only) is very useful as a first-class feature, instead of relying on fiddly BCC. The apps are quite nice to use. Overall, there's less clutter and it is a more pleasant experience than other email clients I've used... until I try to search in the Hotwire-powered web view.
