Some users really like the Inbox by Gmail app, while others hated it immensely. I was a bit in the middle and eventually just stopped using it all together. It had its uses, it was a nice change, it was something new. However, 95% of my email communications come from my AndroidStory email and not my personal Gmail. That really made it useless since the other 5% is mostly just promotions and junk mail. I might just have to give it another go since today Google is opening up the invite system for Google Apps for Work accounts.
To start, we plan to work very closely with the early adopter companies, so not everyone that applies will be accepted right away, but the program will continue to expand over the coming months… Inbox wasn’t created to reinvent email, Inbox was created to help you reinvent the way you get things done. This means we need to understand more about how things get done (or don’t) today. And with your feedback, who knows, we could reinvent the way people work.
It won;t be as simple as just shipping your work email an invite that you might have lying around still. Rather, admins who are in charge of your work emails accounts will need to fire off an email to inboxforwork@google.com from the Gmail Apps account. Once submitted you will have to sit on your hands for a bit as they aren’t expected to start sending out the invites to grant access until early next month. Which, isn’t even a week away.
Anyone linking their Gmail admins to get the ball rolling to see how it plays out for work use?
