Google has announced the launch of a new email app that is designed to be an alternative to Gmail, called Google Inbox, and the app is only available by invite at the moment.
Google has sent out the first round of invites to their new Google Inbox app, and people who are invited will also be able to invite their friends to try out the app.
Today, we’re introducing something new. It’s called Inbox. Years in the making, Inbox is by the same people who brought you Gmail, but it’s not Gmail: it’s a completely different type of inbox, designed to focus on what really matters.
Email started simply as a way to send digital notes around the office. But fast-forward 30 years and with just the phone in your pocket, you can use email to contact virtually anyone in the world…from your best friend to the owner of that bagel shop you discovered last week.
Features of Google Inbox
Google Inbox is designed to help users manage their emails more efficiently and effectively. One of the standout features of Google Inbox is its ability to bundle similar emails together. For example, all your purchase receipts, bank statements, and promotional emails can be grouped into a single bundle, making it easier to manage and review them at once. This feature helps in decluttering your inbox and ensures that important emails are not lost in the sea of less important ones.
Another innovative feature is the “Highlights” function. This feature automatically highlights key information from your emails, such as flight itineraries, event information, and photos, without you having to open the email. This can save users a significant amount of time and make it easier to find important information quickly.
Google Inbox also includes a “Reminders” feature, which allows users to create to-do lists and set reminders directly within the app. This integration means that users can manage their tasks and emails in one place, rather than having to switch between different apps.
How to Get an Invite
As of now, Google Inbox is available by invite only. Google has sent out the first round of invites, and those who receive an invite can also invite their friends to try out the app. If you haven’t received an invite yet, you can request one by emailing inbox@google.com. Google has not yet announced when the app will be available to the general public, but they have indicated that they plan to expand access in the near future.
