PostroomMail that sorts itself
Your inbox, already sorted when you open it.
The twelve receipts become one line that says Purchases. The newsletters become one line that says Updates. What is left at the top of the screen is the handful of messages a person actually wrote to you — which is the mail you opened the app for.
Tuesday, 8:40 am
30 of 30 sorted
Five for you. Twenty-five filed where you can find them. Most mornings that is five rows instead of fifty, and the five are the ones that were always the point.
Nothing is hidden
Open any bundle and it unfolds where it sits. The mail is still your mail, still one tap away, just no longer in the way.
Unsorted says so
Mail Postroom has not read yet waits in its own row and tells you how the sorting is going, rather than pretending an answer.
Nothing is deleted
Sorting moves mail out of your way, never out of your mailbox. Change your mind and everything comes straight back.
Done
one swipe
Takes a conversation off your inbox. It is filed, not thrown away, and search still finds it.
Sweep
one tap
Clears a whole day, or a whole bundle, at once. The thirty promos go in one movement.
Snooze
until later
Puts something back in front of you tonight, or on Tuesday, or the morning you land.
Pin
keep it up
Holds what matters at the top of the screen while everything else moves past it.
Change your mind and it comes straight back. Nothing you do here is a decision you have to live with.
The booking reference is not in the queue at the airport.
The flight, the hotel, the check-in reminder and the boarding pass are one trip, in order, with the dates and the cities filled in.
It builds itself from the day you book, and it is still there afterwards when somebody asks where you stayed.
What is coming today, without opening a shipping email.
Postroom follows what the shops tell you and turns it into a list of things on their way. Four words per parcel, in the order they actually happen.
The eleven notification emails behind that list stay in the Purchases bundle, where they belong.
A real Mac app
Not a website in a window. The whole thing is a keyboard away — press ? for the list — and it behaves the way everything else on your Mac behaves.
A real iPhone and iPad app
Built for a thumb: swipe right to be done with something, left to see it later. Snooze a message at your desk and it is snoozed on your phone before you have stood up.
- Meetings Gathered from the invitations, with what moved and what was cancelled marked plainly.
- Subscriptions Every list you are signed up to in one place, and one tap to leave it.
- Sign-in codes A code that arrives by mail is offered on the form asking for it, above the keyboard, ready to tap. No switching apps, no memorising six digits.
- Search that finds it Wherever it ended up, and whether or not you remember which bundle it went into.
- Writing, replying, forwarding With a few seconds to take a message back after you send it.
- Share to Postroom A page, a photograph, a file or a paragraph arrives as a message with the thing already in it.
- Mail shown properly Attachments and pictures, whether the message was written yesterday or in 1998.
- Several mailboxes Together or one at a time, with the unread count beside each.
- A look you chose Bright cards you can tell apart at a glance, or the plain style of the system.
The sorting happens on your own devices.
Your mail is not uploaded to us to be sorted, and it is never handed to an AI company.
No account
Nothing to create, nothing to subscribe to inside the app, and no advertising anywhere in it.
No tracking
No analytics, no advertising identifiers, and nothing that follows you between apps or across the web.
One exception, stated
Switch notifications on and the sender and first line of a new message travel to your lock screen. None of it is kept. Leave notifications off and even that never happens.
The whole of it is in the privacy policy, in the same plain words.
Coming soon
An inbox is meant to be something you finish.
Postroom is being finished for iPhone, iPad and Mac. Write and we will tell you the day it is out — that is the only thing the address will be used for.
Works with Gmail. The sorting runs on your own devices, and Support explains what that needs.
