### 2/5 — Traded one cluttered inbox for another

*2026-03-05*

No ability to hide or remove newsletters once they’re added seems like a critical feature for something that claims to help organize your inbox. I’m stuck with 12 different bitcoin newsletters and more that I didn’t even sign up for. Jumping to Matter app after trying this for a couple weeks. Good idea, needs some work.

### 1/5 — Not free

*2026-03-03, version 6.2.1*

Requires money but doesn’t disclose up front.

### 2/5 — Absolute trash on MacOS

*2026-01-02, version 6.2.0*

Doesn’t work…error messages all the time.

### 1/5 — Lousy Support

*2025-11-22, version 6.1.0*

Accidentally bought this thing during the test notified them ask for my money back they blithely told me to get my refund from Apple.

Apple of course, says to get it back from Meco. 

Then Meco deleted my account even though they’ve been paid for a full year.  So now I have no access to use the app and they refuse to refund my money.  

Steer clear of these guys.  I am going to report this app and their lousy, smerking “not our problem” support team to everybody…

### 4/5 — Awesome reader

*2025-09-04, version 6.0.2*

Best reader app for email newsletters I’ve tried.

Only 4 stars cause there is no true dark mode. The existing dark mode reformats the newsletter in often incorrect ways.

### 1/5 — Paid af and nothing free

*2025-08-09*

Fully paid app. Took my whole gmail data and not even allowing to delete it

**Developer response:** Hi priyanshjain301,

Meco is not fully paid, you can use it for free by creating a Meco Inbox email, which lets you receive and read newsletters without connecting Gmail.

If you connected Gmail and now want to unlink it and remove your data, you can disconnect it at any time from Meco Settings → Connected Mailboxes, and you can also delete your account from Settings → Help & Support → Delete Account. We never sell your data and your emails are stored locally on your device only.

If you would like help walking through these steps, please email us at team@meco.app and we will be happy to assist.

Thanks,
Sean

### 1/5 — Not meeting expectations

*2025-06-22, version 6.0.2*

This is had to configure, it forced to add newsletter a that I did not want and it displays on top the ones that in Gmail I never open. I am about to give up on this app.

### 3/5 — Teething problems

*2025-06-12*

I really like this app but it really struggles with consistency. Sometimes the emails are there and sometimes they aren’t.

**Developer response:** Thanks for letting us know about the consistency issues. This is not the experience we want for you. It sounds like there may be a sync problem with your connected mailbox.

Often this can be fixed by going to Meco Settings → Connected Mailboxes → Select your mailbox → Resync. If the problem continues, please email us at team@meco.app so we can investigate and get everything running smoothly for you.

Thanks,
Sean

### 5/5 — Absolutely great

*2025-04-19*

One of the apps I use most on the iPad. I finally get to read my Newsletters! It is really the perfect solution for people with more then three Newsletters and a cluttered mail inbox.

### 4/5 — Solved: Newsletter OVERLOAD

*2025-04-07*

I receive almost 30 newsletters in my Inbox and I can't keep up. Thankfully Meco now creates me a Daily Brief - a podcast based on 20 newsletters I gave it. 

App is still a bit buggy but it sounds like they are working out the kinks as the app is still fairly new this is understandable. 

Thank you Meco and Sean

**Developer response:** Hey royalty97,

Really sorry you're not receiving your Daily Brief - sounds like you should have enough content available so we'll investigate why this is happening and get this sorted for you.

Can you please drop us a message at team@meco.app and tell us your account email so we can see exactly what is happening here.

Apologies again for the frustration
Sean
