ReMail (YC W09) launches multiple accounts
- sam 17y agoDoes it let you "flag" emails? That's my biggest beef with the default mail app.
- Skeuomorph 17y agoIt's not a mail app, it's a search index. Like X1 Search (Windows desktop search application) except on the iPhone and indexing Gmail/IMAP accounts. Its settings are separate from the iPhone's Mail app.
- ujjwalg 17y agoThe app description mentions "reMail needs less space than you think: 100,000 emails take 500 MB on your phone - 6% of the capacity of an 8 GB iPhone, the smallest iPhone available" What does that mean? If I have 1GB size 100,000 emails will that take 500MB of space on my phone?
- Skeuomorph 17y agoI have 149,508 messages in my primary Google Apps box, which is using 4,706 MB. In ReMail, the same box is using 466.2 MB of storage.
- zzzmarcus 17y agoMy 45,000+ messages take 170mb. I've been using Remail for a few months now and find it indispensable. For an idea of how useful it is to me, I sort my apps by frequency of use and reMail is on page 2 of 6, after OmniFocus but before Mint.com. It's one of those apps I didn't know I needed but use all the time now that I've got it.
- Skeuomorph 17y agoOut of curiosity, how do you track frequency or recency of use? Just remembering, or is there data to be found?
- gaborcselle 17y agoI'd love to hear suggestions on how we could better communicate this. Please let me know if you have a good idea on how to phrase it.
- f00 17y agoThis line toward the bottom really caught my eye: "Cselle said reMail will soon add a feature allowing users to upgrade by inviting 10 friends to to download the app." This is a brilliant move. I might have to borrow a page from Gabor's playbook very soon. :) (Also, congrats on the new feature launch. ReMail looks great.)
- maxklein 17y agoReMail is the biggest let-down ever. They spoke for months about how they would change email forever, and what came out? A mail searcher.
