iOS: Airmail has long been our favorite email app in the uncluttered market of Mac apps, and today it arrives on the iPhone where it’s up against much stiffer competition. While it doesn’t have one trick that separates it from the others, it does let you do just about whatever the heck you want with it.
On the surface, Airmail is a traditional email app. You get the basics like a unified inbox, support for most email providers, and a customizable sidebar to navigate your email. Airmail does have some modern conventions, like the ability to snooze email, save them as memos, or change them into to-dos, but Airmail doesn’t reinvent the wheel here. In short, unlike other email apps on the iPhone, Airmail doesn’t rethink email, it just does email, which isn’t a bad thing by any means. What really sets Airmail apart from the likes of Spark or Outlook is its insane amount of power user features.
Airmail is possibly the most customizable email app I’ve ever used. You can change simple things like account colors, icons, or label colors. You can set highlights for both read and unread email. You can change the length of message previews. You can set up toggles for remote images, to search the spam folder, set default attachment download times, and even change how notifications look. Airmail also integrates with a ton of third-party apps like Wunderlist, Trello, 2Do, and Fantastical, and you can even set up custom swipe actions to send emails to those apps. For people who don’t like tons of notifications, Airmail also has a VIP option similar to the one built into Apple Mail so you only get notifications from people you approve. It’s crazy how much you can customize here, enough so that it’s best displayed in GIF form:
It’s hard to run through every single possible customization option in Airmail, but rest assured, if you’ve been pining for an email app that you can really toy around with, Airmail’s the one you want.
