However, they’re planning to build a version for teams for better collaboration and premium features. Makers of the app aim to keep the app free for individual users. Hopefully, that’s something the developer team can work on soon. I wouldn’t just use it for my personal emails yet, as unlike Gmail and Edison mail, it doesn’t provide default AI-based sorting of emails into categories in categories such as Travel and Finances. Twobird words for me perfectly as a work email. The company says support other email protocols will be available soon. Faint RSVP box in TwobirdsĪnother limitation of the client is that it only supports Gmail-based addresses at the moment. So you might miss a calendar invite amid other emails. Technically, it’s possible in Twobird by holding the command key and clicking on an email, but it would be nice to have that as the default behavior.Ī small but minor inconvenience is attachment and RSVP boxes, they’re barely visible at the first glance. Just give me a toggle or tab.Įdison also had a two-pane view, so I can read any email without transitioning to a new window. I can do the same with “label: unread” search with Twobird, but reading and acting on every email through search is a bit cumbersome. The developers of the app need to dial down the “aggression” of the low-priority inbox and let users decide what should go there.Įdison Mail had a special tab for unread emails, and that made it very easy to quickly go through everything and reply to any email that was important. I understand why some emails such as newsletter might end up there, but some important press releases and emails from my colleagues ended up there before I bumped up the priority. The biggest complaint I have about Twobird it’s an algorithm for automatically sorting some emails into a “low-priority” inbox. I liked many Inbox features including day-wise. When Google decided to shut its Inbox for Gmail client last year, I was very sad. And I have another note with timeless story ideas I can write on a slow news day. Twobird is a great free email client with collaborative notes. I have a note with upcoming embargoes and events for the week. For a story where I’m talking to multiple people, I can take notes and link email conversations for quick reference. Personally, I used notes like mini project folders. So even if someone in your team doesn’t use the client, you can still work on a collaborative note. Thankfully, they don’t have to make a Twobird account to use it. You can create a note and share it with anyone to make edits. Twobird developers have made the notes features with collaboration in mind. Then there are little things that helped me manage my inbox: pinned emails and notes, snooze, and the recently opened emails tab. This way, even if I missed a few emails from yesterday, I can quickly read them today and inch closer towards inbox-zero. I get a lot of emails every day, which Twobird helpfully sorts by Today, Yesterday, This Week, Last Week, Current Month, and months before that. I’ve been mostly using the Mac client for past month, and it’s features have impressed me. You can download a client for Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS. Twobird is one of the few email clients that’s available cross-platform.
