Google is discontinuing Inbox

Re:Google is discontinuing Inbox by verelo on Wednesday September 12, 2018 @07:15PM (#17974390)

In the hope there is a google employee reading this, i want to shout a big plus one here! The next time the chance to look at the latest Microsoft offering comes up, I’ll do it, using vanilla gmail is just so clunky compared to inbox and i don’t want to go back to it.

Yes. Thank you! Snoozing emails changed my life.

The one thing I miss from Inbox is being able to see my Done/Archived emails in the order archived. (So I can see recently archived emails, even if they're old emails.)

Swipe to snooze would also be nice.

For the first time ever, today I saw a message in Gmail that my email was snoozed.

Is it possible they are just incorporating these features into Gmail? That it was like a safe sandbox for working this stuff out before making at least some of it standard?

Yes. Gmail got Smart Reply, snoozing. Bundles are coming soon, and Smart Compose built on Smart Reply.

I'm quite relieved to hear that; do you have a source? It doesn't seem that you work at Google.

The only source I can find is Verge quoting an anonymous PR person for background. https://www.theverge.com/2018/9/12/17848500/google-inbox-shu...

The Gmail client supports email snoozing including the ability to swipe to snooze. Under general settings swipe actions can be configured with Snooze being an option.

Hmm... The only Gmail setting I see is "Show Sender Images", but I use iPhone, so maybe it's a setting just on Android?

Agree! I used Mailbox initially. Since gmail got snoozing in the new design all I’m missing in gmail is snoozing reminders.

From a Gmail PM:

"Thank you to everyone who made Inbox a part of your life. We're taking everything we've learned and rolling it into Gmail."
