Reviews
Perfect app
Loren.Anderson
Love this app. UI is much better than any email clients I’ve used in the past. Ease of use has allowed me to get to inbox zero for an extended period of time for the first time probably ever. And I love the conversation based approach!! Makes dealing with email almost fun at times ?
It's a really fresh and welcome take on email

It's good and all, but why do I have to sign in to all my accounts one by one on all devices?

If I could quickly glance at my sent messages that would be so great. I am a project coordinator for Latty’s Plumbing in NYC. on average I receive 100 emails by 8 am. Sometimes I need to see quickly if I have responded to a email. It would be great to have a way to review my sent emails and to have a way to Bcc: my emails by default. Other than these small tweaks I truly love your product. I’ve recommended Spike to at very least 50 clients. Keep up the good work. STM
Way too spammy for professional use

Thought I’d use a different app for work emails and way to go Spike, without any opt in it starts sending emails to the company shared email box! Probably the worst product I’ve ever used. And I highly recommend going elsewhere for professional use!
It’s awesome

I love the look, the feel and the function of this app! Great job to the devs!!! UPDATE: one issue I found was when using dark mode, I was trying to compose a message. The text I used was copied and pasted into the body of the outgoing message, but I was unable to see it because it transferred as black text instead of converting it to white. I switched to light mode to alleviate the issue until it’s resolved.
Great until Crashes on ios13

I’ve been using this app for a few years. My only complaint until mine has been the inability to search back beyond three months. Now on 13 it crashes regularly. I’ve been typing emails and suddenly it goes down. Email lost. If it’s not fixed I’ll have to give it up. Please don’t make me do that Spike!
Everything you need.

I just switched to the Spike and sometimes it just unexpectedly crash. If I select 10 or more messages it crashes and please add dark mode. overall it’s good. will make my primary mail client if it doesn’t crash.
It is helping, though I am still getting used to it

Spike is helping me deal with a very slugded -up inbox. My email addies are ancient, so everyone knows them. Years ago I thought changing addresses would help, but now I just have more addresses that are all full of crap, Spike sorts it and give options to see emails grouped based on different attributes. So far I have been using one that makes emails. Look like they came through as texts. It removes a lot of the stuff you don’t need to see and probably don’t even realize is there. It links a thread so it looks like a conversation. It puts some senders and threads out of sight. Initially it sorted with some algorithm that seems about right. Of course one will need to peek in to assure no changes are necessary. Though we are still getting acquainted, it seems that Spike and I will be besties, bffs, blood kin, simbiotes. Vive la similitude!
