Love it very much. I used the beta half year ago. And I think it's better than inbox.

@edceezz Thanks Yu!

Is anyone else unable to snooze more than about a month? If you pick a date. It's grayed out when it's later than March 3 2016.

@borickard is planned thanks

@leonardo_4473 Thanks! Found a bug, by the way. The "Editor" label in the settings. http://imgur.com/q0zSQLS

Is there a way to make it my default iOS mail client ?
Zac Coffman-Magaha
@steveraffner Currently Apple does not allow default mail clients to be set. Hopefully this is offered soon.

@zaccoffman last question - when do you plan the ipad version ?

Been hanging out for a while for this. I've been using Outlook more recently however it has lacked some of the customization I used to enjoy with Mailbox. Easiest $5 I ever spent considering I've used the OS X client for years. Also major win for the 1Password integration.

@rustydingo could you elaborate on what customization you like here over Outlook?
Adrian Phillips
@rananava the biggest thing for me right now are the short and long swipe gestures that I got familiar with in Mailbox. Right now I have Archive, Snooze, Star and Trash. For how I like to tackle email, I appreciate being able to customize those gestures to what I want. The ability to customize the snooze times is also quite helpful for me. Also appreciate being able to customize the actions that are available to me. Being able to color my accounts helps me scan my unified inbox better. As an afterthought I was thinking about how some folks might be overwhelmed by the customization here, however email is something that each person out there deals with email in their own unique way. This app gives users the ability to craft their own workflow.
Rananava
@rustydingo awesome, thanks for sharing that. I hope the makers re-write their app description to explain these benefits clearly.

how does this compare vs. boxer, google inbox and outlook (on iphone)?
Leonardo Chiantini
@davidlee Slightly different, With Boxer the approach is similar Airmail offer much more customisation and actions to suit your workflow. Outlook is a very integrated solution with calendar and all the MS services, Airmail is the opposite try to do the email best it can and use Apps that you like fantastical, or OS Calendar, Omnifocus to integrate your workflow with. Google Inbox is a very aggregative app try to consolidate a lot of information together, airmail not, try to keep it plain and live the tools to slice and process your mail like You want.

Finally! It syncs with the desktop version, it allows you to set up your swipe gestures and it looks beautiful. 💖
Zac Coffman-Magaha
@okonetchnikov Thanks for the compliments Andrey!
Tom Eversley
Superb, I've used the desktop version for a while now and love it, will be purchasing this today. Great job guys.
Zac Coffman-Magaha
@tomeversley Thanks Tom! Feel free to shoot over any questions/comments you may have.
Andrew Mutavdzija
I gotta say, though, this one could be worth the $5 just for those swipe options! Is there a short swipe and long swipe in each direction, too?
Alex Manthei
@andym_dc ya, two options in each direction

How is push notifications work: does Airmail has "server side" where you access to my mailbox from your servers to send push notifications? If yes, can that be disabled?
Leonardo Chiantini
@sashk Yes we use tokens when possible or credentials, the processing is minimal, and after the push is sent the messages are discarded. If the user does not enable push no server processing is used.

@leonardo_4473 Just got added to iOS beta. Do you have a Slack group for me to send feedback on that you can add me to?
