sincity Posted April 9, 2014 Posted April 9, 2014 Dropbox has announced two new versions of Mailbox: one for Android, available now, and one for desktop that's currently in beta. It's been over a year since Dropbox purchased Mailbox, a previously iOS-exclusive app that is meant to make sorting through emails intuitive and simple. At the time Dropbox said it would leave Mailbox alone, opting to let it stand on its own and help it grow rather than folding it into Dropbox. With Mailbox's launch on Android and its impending release on desktop Dropbox has fulfilled that promise. Auto-swipe your spam away Dropbox said Mailbox now has 275 million users. The app also has a new feature called auto-swipe that lets it automatically archive certain types of emails, like spam or marketing messages. The app's official site says it "learns from your swipes and snoozes to automate common actions." Dropbox made the announcement at a presser in San Francisco, where it also revealed a new cloud collaboration service called Project Harmony that will make Microsoft Word, Excel and Powerpoint more like Google Docs. Mailbox uses intuitive gestures on iOS and now Android to help users deal with emails quickly. On desktop it employs similar gestures for users with a trackpad. You can sign up for the Mailbox desktop beta on the app's official site. Facebook cans its email service because no one was using it Quote
