Email – EasilyDo Mail

A superb iOS email app with a truly terrible name

Since the early days of mobile email we’ve been frustrated by iOS email apps: many of them are very good, but don’t quite hit the spot – and the ones that came close, such as Mailbox and Sparrow, were shut down. But now we’ve discovered EasilyDo Mail, which is pretty close to perfect.

Let’s get the imperfect bits out of the way first. Exchange and iPad support isn’t coming until late summer, and you’ll need to wait for the next build to use Gmail aliases. And sometimes the formatting is a bit off.

Now for the good stuff. It’s extremely fast – much faster on Gmail than Apple’s Mail app – and it has smart Assistants that automatica­lly find and organize purchases, tickets and travel documents. It has a unified inbox, email snoozing, Undo Send and Undo Delete, and similar one-click unsubscrib­ing to the Unroll.me online service. If that sounds rather like Google’s Inbox, that’s because it is – but it’s done so much better by EasilyDo. It’s as goodlookin­g as anything on iOS, it’s packed with useful customizat­ion options – including 3D Touch actions – and its Assistants are intelligen­t and useful. It can block email tracking and read receipts, its search makes Mail.app’s search look embarrassi­ngly slow and it’s very fast even on enormous and overstuffe­d Gmail accounts.

For us, all that’s missing is Gmail aliases – so we’re one build away from binning our existing apps and embracing EasilyDo Mail as our everyday email client. It’s that good.

the bottom line. Super-fast and super-smart, EasilyDo Mail is one of the best email programs we’ve used on any platform. Gary Marshall
