What is ChatInbox?
ChatInbox is a native email app for iPhone, iPad and Mac that organizes messages by sender instead of by subject line, turning each contact into a conversation thread. It connects to Gmail, Outlook, iCloud and IMAP accounts and adds a kanban board for tagging and dragging emails, snooze and reminders, an attachment organizer, a daily planner with linked to-dos, and a relationship graph of contacts. On-device AI handles composing, proofreading and triage, and mail stays on the device. It is aimed at people managing busy inboxes and is sold as a one-time purchase with a free download.
