The only email app I use on my phone

I honestly don't understand how anyone gets by without this.
I love this app. I depend on this app.

Triage is a great idea. I spend more time in Triage than in any other email client. I use Triage to quickly get rid of useless email. 2 years ago l, circa 2015, I gave it only 4 stars because of some problems, but I have not encountered those bugs recently. I therefore now give it 5 stars. I love this app. I depend on this app. I am quite worried that this is a 32 bit app that will stop working in a near future version of iOS. I would pay 50$ to have this app ported to the new iOS. I would pay 100$ to have it ported and improved in minor ways. The key to this app IMHO is that it uses vertical swipes, up to archive, down to keep. It's a small thing, but such vertical swipes are far less stress in my thumbs than horizontal swipes. The vertical swipes are symmetric, allowing me to alternate thumbs. Also, by presenting a screenful of info I need to click through to read the rest of the email far less often. Basically, in Triage something like 8% of all emails can be handled in one swipe, compared to 20% in other apps. I would pay 100$ for a minor enhancement: currently Triage has only two options: swipe up to delete or archive, down to keep (plus click through to read more). I wish that I could have two buttons at top and two at bottom: swipe to UL to archive, UR to defer, etc. More options. But still be fundamentally vertical swipes.
Failed to work with gmail

Too bad there's not a free option to test connectivity prior to purchase.
Doesn’t work

Paid $1.99 for the app and it doesn’t sync with iCloud. Signing into iCloud via iOS settings and Safari works normally. Beware.
Wish it was a card style email manager

Great app for what it is. Wish it was a little more :)
So helpful!

I wish there were more apps like this one. I use the Baydin Email Game on my laptop. It's a lifesaver for someone with ADHD like myself. I get distracted by a full inbox. But process one email at a time is exactly what I need. It's also very GTD. I do wish I could view an email's attachments. I'll often email a photo to myself (a flyer or something visual to remind me of a task to do). In those cases I always have to leave this app and open my Gmail app. Still, it's s great app!
not fast enough

2 starts for being a pretty decent interface but has some serious deficiencies. 1) Very slow to download lots of mail. By lots I just mean ~200 or so messages. An email program designed to "triage" lots of mail should be able to handle this number without breaking a sweat but it takes a number of MINUTES every time I get this many messages in my gmail inbox. The official gmail app downloads with same number in 5-10sec. 2) No notifications. Not having an unread / un-triaged badge counter for this app seems like an unforgivable oversight. Bottom line is I would not recommend this to deal with lots of email due to the issues listed. If these items were fixed then this app could be quite good.
Does exactly what it advertises flawlessly

This is a super simple and elegant way of taking a first pass at your email if you have tons of nonsense to sift through as I do. The interaction is fun and intuitive and the app doesn't try to do a million things so it can perfect the core use case. Tried mailbox for a few weeks but it f*#%'s your gmail account by creating tons if folders that are unusable outside of the app. Triage just works and doesn't expect it to replace all other mail clients that you may use (I use sparrow on the desktop, gmail app on iOS etc).
Wicked fast inbox processing

Keeps you from getting deeply distracted and lets you quickly categorize. Very nice! Wish it worked better offline. Wish I could flick left and right for a couple more actions or folders.
