Orphaned: no reply from tech support; wouldn’t launch until I uninstalled/reinstalled

UPDATE: Deleting the app and all of its local data, then reinstalling fixed the problem on both iOS and iPadOS.

The iPad version doesn’t know the keyboard key locations in landscape mode any more, but still does in Portrait.

This has been such a great app since I bought it for all my platforms years ago. Unfortunately, the iPad/iPhone versions stick on the splash screen then timeout and exit after 5 seconds now. The macOS version continues to work like a champ. Hoping the developer reads this and fixes whatever is preventing the iOS version from launching—they haven’t responded to any emails to their tech support. Perhaps it calls home to a server which is no longer online?

I wish they continue updating this app

Excellent app, unfortunately not updated for years.

A sad day

This app was great on release I could control mail clutter and read very easily.now this app no longer works..All the good apps are dis’s appearing 😢I miss the app😢😢

Great app but no longer works

Loved the app but it stopped working. Reached out to developer or support but no response.

Gmail does not work

Seems to be not updated to the latest gmail. Says “this app is blocked” when trying to login to google

App stopped syncing with Gmail

Hello, it is a great application, I used to rely on for my Gmail account. However, lately it stopped syncing with Gmail. Will there be any solution to this problem?

PLEASE DONT ABANDON — I’m still loving it

I’ve been using Unibox for years, it’s still my one and only email client for all of my accounts. It’s simple and powerful. The person centric email threading modernizes emailing to be more like standard messaging. Under the hood the view option, to select a person, and just see all the attachments is an incredible tool.

My favorite tip to anyone:
Buy Unibox even to use for this one trick. Rapidly delete hundreds of spam emails or junk by trashing or junking all the messages from one sender in one step. Or select multiple senders and delete thousands at a time.

Whatever it lacks (in support of specialized features or a given email provider) can be accessed visiting the providers site, such as gmail. So I don’t take a star off for the simple interface or any lack of features.

Plain and simple, Unibox has every feature you’ll absolutely need, and nothing at all that is less necessary which is why I love it. I also love that it’s footprint on my Mac Application support folder is much smaller than Mac’s mail.

Used to be great but it’s abandoned

Unfortunately this app seems to be abandonware. It does not support 2FA which makes it pretty useless for Gmail now (the desktop version still works).

A sad day

This app was great on release I could control mail clutter and read very easily.now this app no longer works..All the good apps are dis’s appearing 😢

Abandoned App?

App has stopped sending - last update was 3 years ago - is it still supported by its developers?

Needs an update

It stopped working for my mail provider more than a year ago. Nice app if it works for you. A bit basic though and it could use some extra features.

Broken!

I tried it several years ago and just now--it's useless! Needs update for iOS17! I delete and delete and everything comes back again and again. Impossible and frustrating! It's a shame, because prior to 4 years ago, Unibox was an excellent app and such a great way to clean up my Inbox.

Wanted to like it but doesn’t work with Office 365 email

Getting error when setting up account.
I disabled 2 step verification and still errors.
Reached out for tech support. No response yet.
Tried manual set up doesn’t work either.

very good email

very happy with this email. System works very well.

Good, but I worry about it being orphaned.

I had to reinstall to get it to start syncing again and I like being able to see all of the messages I have from a sender and handle them all at once. I’m a little worried that the app looks orphaned, though (2yrs since last update).

The best

If you want to have a focus-based email client from every aspect, this is the one. It is like a “things” app for email …

La meilleure

La meilleure au monde. Seul bug on ne peux vider la corbeille tout d’un coup. On dois vider un à un les courriels Merci

Nice features.

It won’t check for my email unless it’s open in the foreground of my iPhone. I like some of the features, though.

I LOVE THIS APP

I’ve been using mail app forever and also outlook . I have switched to uni box and it has made me so happy and less confused with all these emails and chats everywhere. It’s clear when you see all the emails for the day associated with a person. You can find every single attachment that person has ever sent you as it is right there next to their name.

It has improved my life and I am hopeless at IT. So this is for the disorganised person who wants to be organized but doesn’t know how!

Can’t setup and email account

I am unable to set up any email account. I keep getting mail server settings error the data cannot be read because it isn’t in the correct format. I have tried automatic, set up manual set up an even the Gmail set up. I have found no way of reaching support or emailing developer to see if they still support the app. Their Twitter account has not been updated in a few years.
