What is the best tool for achieving #inboxzero ?

I love the UI of Inbox by Google and they make it so easy to achieve the fabled #inboxzero by offering "save for later" / "done" and then other classic options like folders or trash. Also, once you do hit Inbox Zero, you get a beautiful congratulatory message lauding your achievement! I'm all about the positive reinforcement 😍

The way it shows your emails as todos makes it compelling enough to work your way to reach inbox zero.

Complete and very powerful

"Make email work for you"

I still miss Mailbox app to this day - R.I.P! Polymail has been a great replacement. The ability to reschedule messages is key for inbox zero and even for proper follow-up.

Unroll.Me is a solid complement to a lot of the email clients listed here (though I'm biased!)

To stay at inbox zero, I either quickly respond, delete, or schedule the work. The first two you can do in any email app. To schedule the work, I use Todoist. You can easily forward emails into the service, or use the Outlook Plugin to make tasks on the spot. Leaves me with nothing in the inbox, and I don't forget things.

Todo list + email inbox --> just drag emails onto your todo list. Couldn't be simpler

Simple yet powerful. Todo list + Calendar + Pomodoro + Habit Tracker all in one.
