![]() My quest for the perfect Gmail client continues. ![]() Personally, I think Wavebox comes out on top in the comparison, but it still has kinks that I would like them to work out.Įverything else I've tried - Outlook, Mailbird, Thunderbird, eM Client - sucks in different ways. I've been hunting for a great Gmail client for a long time, and sadly, all three of them are far from perfect. Performance and battery life is nearly on par with Wavebox. Also no back/fwd buttons, just like Wavebox. Like, wtf! A tabbed interface would be better, but not sure if it would go with their overall UX philosophy. For heavy Gmail users of multiple accounts and constant back-and-forth between mail, calendar, keep, docs in those accounts, it can easily lead to fifty independent windows in the space of an hour. You can turn off "compose in new window", but rest everything - calendar, drive, sheets, docs - keeps opening in a new window every time you click the buttons. Their selling point of "everything opens in a new window" is a major nuisance for me. Kiwi for Gmail offers a desktop client for accessing single or multiple Gmail accounts. I suspect it is not merely a browser-in-a-box electron clone, but a lot of things are implemented from scratch. Kiwi - The most well designed in terms of their design language, and over designed in other ways. It is often much easier to just hit a back button to, say, go back to you search results or to previously viewed emails. Strangely, it does not have a forward and back button like Shift has, which is a pain in the ass for me when navigating in Gmail. The Slack integration and the ability to use different websites in their own wrapper/tab is really great. Wavebox - Evolved from Wmail, which Shift was forked from. The calendar and drive integrations work reasonably well. Performance and battery life penalty is probably the highest among all three. All three of them are deficient in different ways, so here's my 2 cents. Your inbox should now look more familiar with each message appearing individually in the order received.I've been trying out all three (Windows clients) for some time now (Kiwi has been available only recently). With this newest release, users will harness the full power and industry-leading efficiency of the Apple M1 build, to supercharge their Gmail and Google Workspace experience. Make sure you scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on “Save Changes” button. Kiwi for Gmail is leading the charge in e-mail clients offering M1 support and functionality. If you ever want to go back to threaded messages, just select "Conversation view on" instead. This is where you can choose whether or not emails of the same topic are grouped together.Ĭhoose the “Conversation view off” option to just have each email appear by itself in the order received. In the General tab, scroll down until you see the "Conversation View" section. Luckily it’s easy to turn off the “Conversations” view in Gmail and have your inbox display each individual message instead of grouping them together.Ĭlick the small gear icon in the top right corner of your Gmail inbox The intent is to help give each new email context by grouping it with what should be related messages, Many people love conversations. A conversation breaks off into a new conversation if the subject line changes or the conversation gets to more than 100 emails. If you’ve used Outlook, you may miss viewing messages and their replies as individual entries in your Inbox. Gmail groups emails together in conversations with the newest email on the bottom.
