Dispatch supports generic IMAP accounts, Gmail, iCloud, Yahoo, and AOL email accounts in my tests with Gmail (both regular and Google Apps accounts) and iCloud, Dispatch performed admirably with no configuration errors or sync issues. On iOS, Dispatch wants to replicate that experience through a share sheet that talks to 14 apps, its own snippet system, and other features aimed at enhancing the way you can archive and respond to emails on an iPhone.ĭispatch is iPhone-only for now, but, unlike other recent entries in the mobile email market, its support for email services goes beyond Gmail.

I have shortcuts set up to save a Mail message’s text and URL to Evernote I rely on TextExpander 4 to expand my snippets in any app I use Keyboard Maestro with macros that take the current message’s content and save it to other apps.

Sparrow got acquired by Google, which, a few months later, came out with a completely revamped Gmail app that is now my primary client for searching and composing longer messages on the iPhone and iPad. ![]() I have been using every day it for the past two months, and it’s now on my Home screen alongside Gmail and Triage.Īs I explained in the past here on MacStories, my iOS email workflow was perfectly fine until Sparrow showed interesting new ways to interact with messages on the iPhone. Unlike other new email apps, Triage doesn’t let you scan your inbox to turn messages into to-dos: it uses a one-message-at-a-time approach to see what’s up, what needs attention, and what can be kept for later.ĭispatch, made by Muh Hon Cheng and Lin Junjie, is a new email client for iPhone that’s aimed at the later part. ![]() Triage is based on a simple, efficient, and rewarding process that works by leveraging the iPhone’s most obvious gesture and one-handed operability.
