HEY Email - Reviews, Revenue and Downloads - Apple App Store

Description

It’s “you’ll never go back” better
HEY replaces workarounds, messy hacks, and daily frustrations, with built-in workflows, effortless organization, and clever features that levels-up email in meaningful ways.

Screen emails like you screen calls
You screen your calls, so why can't you screen your emails? With HEY, you can. HEY puts you in complete control of who's allowed to email you. Don't want to hear from someone? Screen them out and won’t hear from them again.

Naturally grouped
Inboxes are typically an intertwined mess of new and old messages haphazardly mixed together. Yuck. With HEY, new messages are always grouped together at the top, and previously seen emails are always at the bottom. Neat and orderly by default. No need to wade through the inbox jungle with a machete.

Spread ’em out, read ’em together
Let's say you have 7 unread emails. Why do you have to open one, close one, open one, close one, open one, close one, and so on. It's rediculously inefficient. With HEY, you can open multiple emails at once and just scroll though them, just like you would a newsfeed. It's a revolutionary way to read your emails. You'll never go back to the old way.

Find files without pulling your hair out
If you’re looking for an attachment, why should you have to find an email first? That’s backwards. With HEY, you get an attachment library that gathers up every attachment you’ve ever received in one organized, siftable place.

Just set it aside
Sometimes you get emails you need to reference later - travel info, handy links, numbers you need, etc. With HEY, you can 'Set Aside' any email in a neat little pile for easy access whenever you need it. At hand, but out of your face.

Put receipts in The Paper Trail
Receipts, confirmations, and transactional emails getting in your way? With HEY, you can send those types of emails to The Paper Trail where they'll be out of your way, but easy to find when you need them.

Blocking email spies 24/7/365
Many companies track which emails you open, how often you open them, and even where you were when you opened them. It's a massive invasion of your privacy. HEY blocks these trackers and tells you who's spying on you.

Fix bad subjects without busting threads
If you don’t start the thread, you're often stuck with other people’s generic, non-descriptive email subjects. With HEY, you can rename a subject so it makes sense for you without changing things for the other person.

Add private notes to any email thread
Conversations may start in email, but they may continue somewhere else. Some emails turn into lunches or calls or video conferences. Where do you put the notes from those - especially if they relate to the initial email conversation? With HEY, you can add personal, private notes (and files) to any thread. This way you keep everything related to the conversation on one page, even if it didn't all happen via email.

Notifications you control
HEY push notifications are off by default so your phone doesn’t steal your attention every time an inconsequential email hits your inbox. However, HEY lets you selectively turn them on for specific contacts or threads so you don't miss the things you really care about.

A built-in ‘Reply Later’ workflow
What if you need to reply, but you don't have time right now? With HEY, just click the “Reply Later” button to move an email to a dedicated ‘Reply Later’ pile at the bottom of the screen so you don’t lose or forget it.

Stop heavy senders from dominating your inbox
When you get lots of emails from someone, they can take over your Inbox. With HEY, you can choose to bundle a sender into a single row. This means no matter how many emails they send you, they'll only take up a single row in your Inbox. Clean, controlled, and calm.

Get off threads without having to ask
Stuck on a mega email chain and want off? Good luck asking someone to remove you. With HEY, you can unfollow any thread and replies won’t show up as new emails anymore. Out of your face forever.

Great stuff

Has all the tools regular users and power users need for personal emails, but uses a different approach than the others. Very opinionated. My only paid email service and I absolutely do not regret paying for it.

Just ok

Proudly and condescendingly (a recurring theme for the founders of 37signals) not using javascript frameworks, but can't even implement a 24 hour clock. Nagging me to turn on recycling but app crashes every time I try to turn it on. Keeping it because I'm to lazy to go through the hassle of changing my primary email again.

Terrible customer service

My credit card had expired and instead of warning me they just waited and immediately closed the account as soon as payment failed. Now I’m out traveling and can’t access any booking information store. Stay far away from this company, it’s just too risky if you need reliable service.

Finally

It’s worth €3000 a year, conservative calculation

Great app and service

I’m quite happy with the service and app. The only thing I’m missing is being able to swipe left and right to go between imbox, feed and paper trail.

Good app with room for improvement

The app of the hour is okay plus, and Hey’s approach to e-mail is great. There are some features I miss. One is the possibility to minimize the "previously seen" menu, giving a cleaner, sleeker look. At the moment the "previously seen" menu does the clean philosophy of Hey a disservice. Coming into an empty imbox is not as joyful as it could have been if the imbox took more of the page’s real-estate was bigger. There are no swiping motion controls in the app. I really expected a possibility to swipe the entire imbox left or right to get to the feed and the paper trail, allowing for quicker and hassle-free navigation. In it’s current state it demands far too many clicks to change between the different inboxes. I have high expectations for where the app goes next, but in it’s current state it has room for improvement.

Their war with Apple makes me doubt their intentions

This company is currently at war with Apple over having to offer an in-app subscription. Thing is, that while definitely financially motivated, the app store eco system offers a fast and straight forward way to subscribe to something that you would think struck home with the people behind a «consent-first» based «secure» email service. Apparently it does not. When Hey then asks me to not just use a new app, but switch emails, that’s not something I want to do with a company that throws a hissy fit over paying rent to the very platform that allows them to exist. That sort of entitled BS puts the customer last and undermines everything they claim to want to do

Fantastic even if I cannot login yet thanks to Apples greed and stupidity

Also a big thank you to @dhh and hey devs for standing up against unfairness!

Different. Better. Safer.

This is just the beginning but already shaping up to be a game changer in email. Apple: please come to your senses and move away from obligatory IAP!

Just email, only better

So good to have a mail service that actively battles tracking and protects privacy.
