Ranking Email Apps 2022
The email applications out there and how they rank to others
2 min readJun 22, 2022
This is my personal opinion on email applications.
Email applications are traditionally free with Gmail, Outlook and Apple Mail — we’ve picked out and focused more on 3rd party email applications.
So I’d recommend checking out their security policies and company backgrounds — always. Some include affiliate links below.
These are our opinions on each email app:
💎 Email Applications Ranked

✨ EPIC — Super Email Apps
- Hey.com — For $99 per year, Hey presents a productivity-workflow focused email app with a hey.com domain for your endeavours.
- Spark Mail — A Readdle-developed all-rounder email app, perfect for Android, iOS and Mac users — well designed and team-options too.
- Missive — Perfect for collaborating, beautiful design and great customisations that will take your email further
- Superhuman — The most stunning email app you’ll ever use, combined with super duper fast use — taking Gmail speeds further.
✅ GOOD — Decent Options
- Spike — Like Slack for email, Spike is for those who love real-time feel to their email experience
- Newton — Newton has died twice, but still presents an clean and easy, zen-focused application
🙃 MEH — Alright Ones!
- Outlook — Microsoft have built a reliable, easy and free email. The calendar is the best part of this, but lacks as much design and custom features as these others.
- Polymail — More for team collaboration — Polymail lacks personal users experience but makes up for team management — I’d recommend Missive or Spark over the top of this.
❌ NOT WORTH IT — Not the Best
- Airmail — A previous winner of App Store design, compared to today’s line-up — Airmail isn’t the best option here.
