Kurir Email
Read full descriptionHide full description
Kurir is a mail app for iPhone and Mac where new senders knock first. It works with the mail account you already have: iCloud, Gmail, Fastmail or any IMAP server. There is no Kurir account and no server to run. THE SCREENER The first time someone writes to you, their mail waits in the Screener. One tap sends the sender to the Imbox, The Feed or Paper Trail. Another blocks them. You decide once per sender, or once for a whole domain, and Kurir remembers. THREE PLACES, NOT ONE PILE The Imbox holds mail from people you approved. The Feed holds the newsletters you chose to keep. Paper Trail holds receipts, bookings and shipping notices, found with search the day you need one. YOUR MAILBOX IS THE SYNC Kurir keeps your screening choices, rules, snoozes and settings in a hidden folder in your own mailbox. Your iPhone and your Mac both read it, so they agree without a server in between. Turn on encryption and that folder is sealed with a passphrase only you know. CALENDAR Connect an iCloud, Google, Fastmail or other CalDAV calendar, or subscribe to an .ics link. Day, week and month views show how many hours are still open, and the next meeting sits on top with a Join button. NEW MAIL RIGHT AWAY Kurir Push keeps checking your mail and pushes new mail to your iPhone. It runs on a Mac with Kurir open, or on a server of your own. Without it, the iPhone checks for new mail when iOS lets it. AND THE REST Reply Later, snooze, follow-ups, send later, pinned threads, Collections, contacts and groups, a list of every attachment, several accounts, and search across all your mail on the device. Images that report when you open a mail stay blocked. AI ON YOUR OWN SUBSCRIPTION Draft generation and AI Rules run on the Claude subscription you connect in Settings. The mail a feature needs goes straight to Anthropic, with no Kurir server in between. PRIVATE No analytics and no tracking. Your mail stays on your device and your mail server. SUBSCRIPTION Kurir is free to download and needs a subscription, yearly or monthly. The yearly plan starts with a free month and the monthly plan with a free week. Payment is charged to your Apple Account. The subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel it in your Apple Account settings.
