I was already a 'power' Gmail user when Inbox was released. I had developed muscle-memory for prob 20 keyboard shortcuts and used Gmail mouse-free, had dozens of labels, used a slew of Gmail Labs, and had given up using an external email client (used Gmail in a browser exclusively).

Yet when Inbox came along, it was incredibly useful, especially on my phone. It was my choice of app for quickly digesting email on-the-go. I stopped using the Gmail app.

But conversely on the desktop, I remained a Gmail user and never used Inbox.

I understand that the rumors are that Bundles are coming to Gmail which is good and necessary. I can only hope that it's as seamless in the mobile app as it is now in Inbox.

Long live Inbox!
