At one time, releasing the highly unusual and successful Mailbox mail client for your operating system iOS (we can read here and here ), the same company was sold to one of the pioneers of “cloud storage” – of Dropbox Inc., after which there was a long lull in his development. That night, for the Android mobile operating system already appeared two applications from the pen of the company, one of which began as just that-Mailbox, and it is clear that the client will live!

When you first start you will be prompted to enter your Dropbox-account which is used to synchronize the settings and your preferences in the program (step verification available). Then you add the email account from which supported “boxes” on Gmail and iCloud – migrate from iOS should become easier.

Mailbox itself different in implementation approach to working with e-mail in comparison with competitors. There are five conditional “zones” of actions to be performed depending on the length of your swipe to post. Sway your finger right – archive a message, pull more – remove; left – postpone a message to be read later (by, in fact, when we interact with it), pull even further – pass lists, of which there are several pieces (and you can add your own):

The purpose of all this is simple – leave in the mailbox only the most important, and discarding removing any irrelevant information in the archive. As an aid, in addition to the entry when you first start, you will receive an email with various tips on how to make use of the program even more convenient and simple.

Main operating screen consists of three tabs – deferred messages archived and read. Swipe from left end smartphone navigation will cause “blind”, from which you can go not only in sub-programs, but also in its settings. Unread messages are marked with blue label on the left:

Settings themselves are not so much, you can add multiple accounts, select the signature routine of your day (and the beginning of the working day off, the end of the add) and set up another couple of points:

When viewing the message with images supported zoom in reverse “plucking” – this is the standard, and that’s bad, it’s that attach to the messages here can only photographs (for other files also require their presence in your Dropbox – “cloud”) :

Does the principle of interaction Mailbox with mail? More yes than no, but have to get used to it, what I personally, for example, is not ready, even though the client is interesting enough just gestures and his concept of “important letters.” Lack of ability to attach files directly from your phone severely restricts the scope of action, for now, to submit any document or file you will need to first upload it to Dropbox, and then load it from the same – it spends not only time, but also so expensive in some countries mobile traffic. Frankly, the possibilities open Android file system is not involved. Will he be able to survive on the background of very strong competitors like CloudMagic and myMail (can not be discounted and “native” Gmail), in addition to another five-ten worthy representatives of this type of program – is another question, answer that each of you will discover yourself.

Besides the fact that Apple has released the final version of iOS 7, the company has also updated and some other programs. Moreover, in this case we are talking about software for Windows.

In particular, the iCloud Control Panel for Windows an opportunity to not only synchronize bookmarks with Internet Explorer, but also with Chrome and Firefox. Although it will have to set the appropriate browser extensions have also recently released Apple. It’s funny that in OS X until a feint of alternative browsers and bookmarks iCloud can be done.

In addition to bookmarks iCloud Control Panel allows you to synchronize between Windows, OS X and iOS contacts, mail and calendar events.

This summer, Apple updated the home page of its “cloud” service, turning it into some kind of desktop iOS 7. Web version of iCloud was very bright, “transparent” and “flat”, borrowing the icons of the mobile operating system. In addition, a limited number of users was available iWork new feature in the “cloud” that allows you to work with documents in the browser. Prior to this page of the day of service was in beta and is now available in a new guise is all visitors, according to the portal Cult Of Mac.

To evaluate the new design itself, it is necessary to visit iCloud.com and enter the data on the page of your account Apple. It is noteworthy that on the thumbnails Pages, Numbers and Keynote still flaunts icon “beta.” Most likely, the company will remove these labels after the release of iOS 7 or upgrade iWork.

Switch between applications become much easier.

The new application “Mail” in the iCloud somehow reminds me of the web version of Outlook from Microsoft.

It is expected that this operation will be subject to all of the applications from Apple, in particular software packages iWork and iLife. Their possible appearance in the style of iOS 7 many times offered to third-party designers , but their proposals have caused a wave of indignation rather than a storm of enthusiasm.

At the presentation of the new iPhone on September 10 Corporation reported that new buyers iOS-device packages iWork and iLife will be available free of charge . The programs have been among the most popular in the App Store and before that were worth $ 10 each. However, Apple has decided to encourage customers to use their office products, and not the decisions of competitors .

After the official release of iOS 7 will update an incredible amount of applications to support the latest version of the software. So I advise you to soon turn off automatic software updates via 3G.
