No instructions that help.


Does not work

Mmmmmiiiiikkkkkeeee

I hace attempted to set up the me.com account unsuccessfully with regular or advanced settings. Worthless app, and a waste of money.

You kidding, can’t save drafts even if you swipe left and press save?


Promise but NO support.

App ‘works’, but Updates are few and far between. AND Support replies are worse. So much potential and so much loss revenue. Hard to figure?


The only iOS mail app that lets you get work done

glyph!

Updated 2018/11 to remove a star because the lack of updates is starting to degrade its functionality: - the “load attachment” bar overlaps all the action buttons on the iPhone XS Max - still no watchOS 5 compatible update, so it functionally does not include a watch app Despite these shortcomings, this app is still the best way to actually get work done with email on an iOS device, so I *really* hope the developers get it together to put together an update soon. ——— To properly process an email, one needs to be able to quickly: • read it • archive it • delete it • reply to it • create a task from it Every other mail app on iOS does not afford me the option to do the last one. Now when I’m commuting, or stuck in line at the grocery store, I can confidently process my inbox, saving me scads of time when I get back to my desk. Furthermore, it allows you to sort your inbox in the *CORRECT* order, “oldest first”, so you can read and process messages in order, not getting distracted by newer things while you figure out what to do with the older ones. I wish I could give this app five stars. I can’t live without it now. But despite the fact that it implements the critical *core* functionality that Apple, Google, and Fastmail have somehow declined to provide, it falls down pretty hard in other areas: • no editing of the quoted message in a reply, i.e. no inline replying • it crashes when you try to make an event from a date • setup is finicky and opaque; some IMAP servers take three or four tries to connect to for no reason I can discern • displaying photos from contacts fails randomly with no explanation • no VIP notification support • no thread notifications • sort ordering preference doesn't apply in non-inbox mailboxes • messages can’t be cached offline • swipe actions are finicky and don’t seem to trigger consistently There are more bugs that I can’t remember off the top of my head, too. So I really hope the authors of this app give it some maintenance and polish off the sharp corners, because the core experience is still way ahead of any other apps I’ve used.


Desperate for an update

Ardelio

This was my primary email client for a long time, primarily because my email is often needing to be exported as a task in either 2Do or Things task managers. Unfortunately, with the lack of further development I had to seek another email client. For those looking for a client that integrates with other apps, I suggest looking at Spark as an alternative that has been getting nice updates.


Fix notification intervals

LocBox

Fetch intervals are too long..can't tell if it's working. Add dark mode as well. Update: still no fixes for notifications. Can't tell u have an email unless I open the app..not useful at all in that case. Please fix.


Would be a five if I could PRINT from it!

RetiredGoose

Loved this app but had to give it up for Edison Mail since I needed to print email once in a while. Real shame. Had a great start but just falls short and Devs AWOL for a year now.


Push!

Labelle

Would definitely use if it had Push notifications. It here are many times I get important emails and I need to see them on the spot.


Well made, but out of touch....

Sean&Devon

This needs a big huge update. The developers did a fantastic job, BUT I feel they are out of touch with the amazing developments included in other mail apps. I think an overhaul with more capability and easier dispatching would be great. Again the concept and much of the app is great, but there seems to be missing some heart and soul in further development of the app. This could be a 10/10, but I say a 5/10 right now. Hopefully they can talk to their customers and see what they want added. Not trying to tear them down because I so badly want them to build it better! For the non-power user I say this is a great app. - update: they just won’t work on this app and nobody knows why. This is THE app that most power users would happily pay more money to have updates, I know that. C’mon guys, please. Thanks! UPDATE: Nothing new... Losing hope.
