Google Inbox - what is all the psyche about it?
I don't find it easy to navigate my e-mails both on the browser and using the App on my phone. I am still lost as to why people are praising this Inbox thing. I could be missing something obvious which someone can help me out with. -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 "I can't hear you -- I'm using the scrambler."
I totally had to delete it, luckily my old gmail app was still on, though I still just like accessing it on the web. The inbox thing is totally confusing and IMHO trying to fix what is not broken ./Ok3ch On Tue, Nov 18, 2014 at 11:29 AM, Odhiambo Washington via skunkworks < skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> wrote:

Also didn't like it. 5 minutes in and it was uninstalled. But then again I also didn't like the new Gmail layout when it came out; now I use it every day :) On 18 November 2014 13:42, Okechukwu via skunkworks < skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> wrote:

So, Jangita, what do you see as the advantages of this Inbox apart from the fact that Google has gone a notch higher in wanting to know our habits? I have never had a problem with gmail interface except that of people always resisting change:-) Maybe it's the same now to, but I get lost in Inbox. I am used to search, choose multiple and take some action (delete, archive, mark as read/unread) which I find quite difficult (so far) with Inbox. Even when I open Inbox/Gmail SxS on my browser, I still find life easier with the normal gmail. Let's just say one day maybe it will make sense. Google will learn our habits then change Inbox to something "easier to use" again. On 18 November 2014 13:50, Jangita Nyagudi via skunkworks < skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> wrote:

Also had to put it aside after a couple of minutes. Doesn't work well with my filters and labels. Regards, Alex On Tue, Nov 18, 2014 at 3:04 PM, Odhiambo Washington via skunkworks < skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> wrote:
