Mailbox is very close to landing on Android, plus optimized for iPad and get to MAC OS X and get iCloud integration. This has been confirmed by the company's communication department on Twitter, which has been operating for a few days and responding to questions from interested users and consumers.
A few days ago it was confirmed its imminent arrival to iPad, something that on the other hand fell due to its weight, since it only consisted of a optimization to tablet format. In the case of Android it also seemed a reasonable step, although we already know that there is. Developers who aren't in too much of a hurry to take this step. They will also develop an application for MAC OS X jumping from mobile to desktop. The integration with an iCloud is natural since it is transversal to the two Apple operating systems. We imagine that it will be to make backups, save and load attachments.
So far Mailbox is only available for iPhone and iPod Touch and only Gmail accounts can be added. This aspect is going to be improved and they will allow synchronization with more mail services of course.
Even so and counting only on this, it has managed to attract more than a million users. This date will be growing rapidly. There was a time when the great demand for new accounts saturated the application and you had to request reserved access. After its acquisition by Dropbox, more powerful servers were hired, and could open the inscription for new users.
The main feature of this email client, and the key to its success, is the speed to see chain mail thanks to a chat or quick messaging type design. To this must be added the ease of deleting and archiving emails with a single gesture.
Another great detail is to make you be notified again of the entry of an email if when you receive it you do not have time to read it. It's like the snooze the alarm clock.
There is no specific date for all these improvements, but they should be on the horizon soon if they have decided to announce them. It seems that the first thing will be everything related to Apple and later Android. Nothing new under the sun.
