Save to Pocket and Evernote from your inbox with CloudMagic's Cards
Try as we might, we just can't escape email. Apple, Google, Microsoft
and others have tried to do more with our messages, but only recently
have we seen apps and services try to provide better context on their
contents. With its latest update, CloudMagic, a free iOS and Android
email app we've recommended in the past,
has included new feature that ignores your need to reach Inbox Zero and
focuses on extracting all of the important data in your email so that
you can actually do something with it. To do this, it uses "Cards",
workflows that connect to popular online services like Pocket, Evernote
and Trello and allow you to save to-do lists, notes and web links
without leaving the comfort of your inbox.
CloudMagic's Cards are loaded by double-tapping on an open email
message or by hitting a small icon located next to a sender's name.
Right now, it features a number of business-centric services like
Salesforce, Zendesk and Mailchimp, but the app's creators have opened
Cards to all and are actively working with developers to support more
tools like Evernote and Pocket in the future. While Google's Gmail app
provides similar hooks, if you don't want to be part of its ecosystem,
you're out of luck. CloudMagic sidesteps the issue by including support
for Google, Exchange, Outlook, iCloud and other email services while
using its own cloud algorithms to make your emails easier to find.
CloudMagic's updated apps are available via the App Store and Google
Play, you can find them by using the links below.
