Today, everyone's favourite hip little mail app, Mailboxshuts down forever. Unlike most apps, you won't be able to use the Mailbox app at all once it does. Thankfully, a lot has happened since Mailbox shook up the email market when it launched, and there are other apps that can do most of what Mailbox used to do, arguably better.
Briefly: Dropbox is shutting down their mobile email client, Mailbox, on February 26. The influential client utilised swipes and gestures to organise emails and was first acquired by Dropbox in 2013. Carousel, Dropbox's photo organisation app, will also be discontinued. Read more on the Dropbox blog.
Mailbox, the popular iOS and Android email app, has started sending out invitations for its public beta for the Mac app.
iOS: Mailbox is one of the best email apps on iOS. Today it gets an update that adds a new automatic archiving feature that brings it in line with the Android version.
We've always loved Mailbox for iOS, but it's tough to use a specialised email app when it only works on one of your platforms. Fortunately, the app is now available for Android and in beta for desktop on Mac today.
