You have to request access after signing in, assuming you have a google drive 
account. It would make everyone's life easier if he used DropBox's public 
folder and sent the link to the file.

  10 Super Efficient Ways Inbox by Gmail Saves You Time

Gmail is good as ever, but could Inbox by Gmail
<https://inbox.google.com/> be the better choice for you?

Inbox by Gmail is Google’s most recent approach to email
organization and management. It takes some getting used to,
but if it’s capable of giving you a simpler email workflow
<http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/6-simple-tricks-reduce-email-stress/>,
it’s worth adopting. And now you don’t even need an invite to
use Inbox!

<https://twitter.com/JoshTodd/status/717766579694346240>

To help you decide whether you should switch over to Inbox
completely, we’ll show you some of the ways in which it’ll
make email better for you. But first, let’s show you where
everything is in Inbox’s interface.


Where Inbox Options Are

You’ll find all of Inbox’s options and settings in one of five
locations:

  * *The toolbar that appears when you hover over a message* –
This is where you’ll find the options to pin an email,
snooze it, mark it as done (or move it to the inbox)

Image removed by sender. inbox-message-toolbar

  * *The pop-up menu that appears when you click on the Move
to… icon* (three dots arranged vertically) in the
toolbar shown above
  * *The icon-driven menu hidden behind the Compose button* –
You’ll be able to see the menu when you hover over the big
red plus (+) icon at the bottom right in Inbox
  * *Inbox’s Settings dialog* – To bring this up, click on the
hamburger icon at the top left in the Inbox interface, and
in the fly-out sidebar that appears, click on *Settings*

Image removed by sender. inbox-settings

  * *Individual bundle settings* – To bring up the *Settings*
dialog for any bundle, hover on its link in the sidebar
and click on the gear icon that appears next to it.

Image removed by sender. inbox-bundle-settings

Now let’s see how Inbox saves you, the user, both time and effort.


1. Turns Your Emails into To-dos

With Gmail, you can send emails as tasks to your to-do list
<http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/9-instant-ways-turn-emails-tasks/>
app, but with Inbox, your email /is/ your to-do list. Inbox
treats it as such because it understands that most emails need
you to take some kind of action.

Inbox allows you to mark emails as “done” instead of “read” or
“archived”. That may be a simple change of wording, but it
does put a different spin on email management.

I'm loving Inbox by Gmail. Making emails "actionable" made
the experience amazing for a To-Do List junkie like me –

Now let’s see how Inbox saves you, the user, both time and effort.


1. Turns Your Emails into To-dos


With Gmail, you can send emails as tasks to your to-do list 
<http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/9-instant-ways-turn-emails-tasks/>  app, but with 
Inbox, your email is your to-do list. Inbox treats it as such because it 
understands that most emails need you to take some kind of action.

Inbox allows you to mark emails as “done” instead of “read” or “archived”. That 
may be a simple change of wording, but it does put a different spin on email 
management.

<https://twitter.com/amitchellidea/status/527549923546243072> 

Emails that you mark as done get shunted out of your way. It’s like checking 
tasks off your to-do list and is the equivalent of archiving in Gmail. You can 
also pin important emails to the top of your inbox for quick access to them.


2. Sorts Email Right for You


Inbox takes the onus of sorting your email and does a pretty good job of it. It 
places similar emails in groups called Bundles.

When you’re setting up Inbox for the first time, you’ll get a prompt to choose 
which type of emails you’d like to see grouped into a separate bundle. Trips, 
Promos, Updates, Forums, and Finance are some of the bundle types that you can 
choose from.

Use the Create new… sidebar link if you’d like to create a custom bundle. You 
can go back and tweak your bundle preferences anytime via Inbox settings.


3. Highlights Just the Data You Need

10 Super Efficient Ways Inbox by Gmail Saves You Time


Gmail is good as ever, but could Inbox by Gmail <https://inbox.google.com/>  be 
the better choice for you?

Inbox by Gmail is Google’s most recent approach to email organization and 
management. It takes some getting used to, but if it’s capable of giving you a 
<http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/6-simple-tricks-reduce-email-stress/>  simpler 
email workflow, it’s worth adopting. And now you don’t even need an invite to

To help you decide whether you should switch over to Inbox completely, we’ll 
show you some of the ways in which it’ll make email better for you. But first, 
let’s show you where everything is in Inbox’s interface.


Where Inbox Options Are


You’ll find all of Inbox’s options and settings in one of five locations:

*   The toolbar that appears when you hover over a message – This is where 
you’ll find the options to pin an email, snooze it, mark it as done (or move it 
to the inbox)

Image removed by sender. inbox-message-toolbar

*   The pop-up menu that appears when you click on the Move to… icon (three 
dots arranged vertically) in the toolbar shown above
*   The icon-driven menu hidden behind the Compose button – You’ll be able 
to see the menu when you hover over the big red plus (+) icon at the bottom 
right in Inbox
*   Inbox’s Settings dialog – To bring this up, click on the hamburger icon

appears, click on Settings

like checking tasks off your to-do list and is the equivalent of
archiving in Gmail. You can also pin important emails to the top
of your inbox for quick access to them.


2. Sorts Email Right for You

Inbox takes the onus of sorting your email and does a pretty good
job of it. *It places similar emails in groups called Bundles.*

When you’re setting up Inbox for the first time, you’ll get a
prompt to choose which type of emails you’d like to see grouped
into a separate bundle. Trips, Promos, Updates, Forums, and
Finance are some of the bundle types that you can choose from.

Use the *Create new*… sidebar link if you’d like to create a
custom bundle. You can go back and tweak your bundle preferences
anytime via Inbox settings.

Great suggestion, Kramlinger,! I'll work on making a podcast of Inbox by
Gmail with VoiceOver.
Would others also find this useful?
Thanks!

10 Super Efficient Ways Inbox by Gmail Saves You Time

Gmail is good as ever, but could Inbox by Gmail be 
the better choice for you?

Inbox by Gmail is Google’s most recent approach to email organization and 
management. It takes some getting used to, but if it’s capable of giving you a 
simpler email 
workflow, 
it’s worth adopting. And now you don’t even need an invite to use Inbox!

TIL you can mute in @inboxbygmail by pressing 
M.

To help you decide whether you should switch over to Inbox completely, we’ll 
show you some of the ways in which it’ll make email better for you. But first, 
let’s show you where everything is in Inbox’s interface.

Where Inbox Options Are

You’ll find all of Inbox’s options and settings in one of five locations:

  *   The toolbar that appears when you hover over a message – This is where 
you’ll find the options to pin an email, snooze it, mark it as done (or move it 
to the inbox)

[Image removed by sender. inbox-message-toolbar]

  *   The pop-up menu that appears when you click on the Move to… icon (three 
dots arranged vertically) in the toolbar shown above
  *   The icon-driven menu hidden behind the Compose button – You’ll be able to 
see the menu when you hover over the big red plus (+) icon at the bottom right 
in Inbox
  *   Inbox’s Settings dialog – To bring this up, click on the hamburger icon 
at the top left in the Inbox interface, and in the fly-out sidebar that 
appears, click on Settings

[Image removed by sender. inbox-settings]

  *   Individual bundle settings – To bring up the Settings dialog for any 
bundle, hover on its link in the sidebar and click on the gear icon that 
appears next to it.

[Image removed by sender. inbox-bundle-settings]

Now let’s see how Inbox saves you, the user, both time and effort.

1. Turns Your Emails into To-dos

With Gmail, you can send emails as tasks to your to-do 
list app, but 
with Inbox, your email is your to-do list. Inbox treats it as such because it 
understands that most emails need you to take some kind of action.

Inbox allows you to mark emails as “done” instead of “read” or “archived”. That 
may be a simple change of wording, but it does put a different spin on email 
management.

Emails that you mark as done get shunted out of your way. It’s like checking 
tasks off your to-do list and is the equivalent of archiving in Gmail. You can 
also pin important emails to the top of your inbox for quick access to them.

2. Sorts Email Right for You

Inbox takes the onus of sorting your email and does a pretty good job of it. It 
places similar emails in groups called Bundles.

When you’re setting up Inbox for the first time, you’ll get a prompt to choose

Inbox also makes it easy to tell if an email has attachments, photos, inline 
images, links to videos, etc., by making their thumbnails visible in your inbox.

If you mention a link, a phone number, or an email address while creating a 
reminder in Inbox, its Assist feature brings up extra information that it 
thinks you might need. We’re sharing this tweet as an example:

reminder for myself a month ago, and Inbox knows when my pharmacy opens!
