If you had to do with tons of email Inbox seem like it would be great. However it just got in the way when you only had to deal a few emails a day.

#12That makes me sad. I love the snooze features of inbox. The new gmail one is not the same. :(. Especially the UX of the iPhone app.
Oh well.

#13It's really interesting to see the super-knee jerk reaction here when the article itself even says that most of the features made their way into gmail.
(I was a heavy inbox user, and i am happy with the stuff that made it's way into gmail).
Outside of some of the bundling features, i'm curious what actual difference people are complaining about here.

#14Not trying to be facetious or anything, but honestly I wonder why at this point anybody would bother using any Google product besides the triumvirate of Search/Maps/Gmail. What's the point?
Calendar is the only thing I've found that integrates really well with absolutely everything
Sheets is neat too.

People are complaining about having to switch apps. Users have found something that works and they've gotten used to it. Now they'll be forced to switch for no apparent value add. Why do you think people would be okay with that?

Deleting/sweeping a section of emails away on mobile is a huge productivity boost for me. The Gmail app on Android doesn't have this feature from what I can tell.
Snooze was a big one too, but that got crippled in Inbox a while ago as well.

You have it in Gmail now too.
Re: Google is discontinuing Inbox
#19Okay, what can I download for iPhone to replace this? It was truly a beautiful UX. I loved it every single day I used it.
Gmail? Most of the feature are there already.
Re: Google is discontinuing Inbox
#20I'm actually thinking of switching to a different email service because of this. Gmail is just way to cluttered for my taste, inbox's model where you can just check off emails and they're gone was such a time-saver and a fresh breath of air.
I hope I can find something as simplistic and at the same time feature rich somewhere else :(
