Google on Thursday announced a revamped version of its Gmail app called Inbox, which seeks to change how emails are organized.
According to a CNET report, the new version of the app sorts the inbox by categorizing every email one receives, as either an important message that deserves space in your inbox, or as less-important update that can be lumped into a label with other message like it.
However, Google introduced this concept in the latest version of Gmail from 2013, with the tabbed inbox, where messages are automatically grouped into labels such as Promotions, Social, and Update.
Inbox takes that further with a new approach and more labels, all in the name of helping remove clutter from your email.
Meanwhile, the app is invite-only for now, and users can email Google at inbox@google.com to request an invitation.
