This looks promising. I applied for a Newslettrs email in order to add newsletters that were not listed but most (all?) newsletters require a confirmation email to be returned that they are presumably sending to the @newslettrs.app email. How is this handled? I do not see the newsletters I added in the Inbox. Thanks for thinking of this product!

@matthewmindlin Thank you Matt for your feedback. Except for the newsletters in the Explore section, other Newsletters that you subscribe to, are treated the same way as your regular email. Once you hit the confirmation email, you should start receiving the newsletter regularly. If the newsletter is popular, then it will be in the Explore section.

@_product7 I’m sorry but I don’t get it. When I subscribe to a newsletter it wants my email. I put the newsletters.app email address in so that the newsletter is routed to my newslettr account. But the newsletter service sends a confirmation email to the newslettr.app email which I do not receive in my email application nor does it show up in the newslettr web site/inbox. So there’s no way to confirm that email address and the newsletter that I subscribe to never appears. Am I missing something?

@matthewmindlin The newsletter service is supposed to send a confirmation email and you will receive it in the inbox inside Newslettrs app. Once you confirm your subscription from that email, you will get future emails in your inbox. You aren't missing something. It is supposed to work the way you described. If it is not then I need to check what is happening. What is the best place to talk to you privately about this issue?

@_product7 I'm facing the same issue. I subscribed to a newsletter (not listed inside the app) but I haven't been able to see the confirmation email yet.

Loving it. What's your business model? Also, is it possible to add a newsletter to the directly rather than adding just to my inbox? Probably it's get added to the public 'explore' directly as well but with the empty 'default' description. How can we write description for the added newsletter Thank you.

@niteshmanav Thank you Nitesh. I appreciate the feedback and the question. I do have a business model for the long term but for the short term there isn't one. For now, I can say only one thing about my business model - it definitely does not involve targeted advertising. For now, there isn't a way to add the newsletter to the directory by the user yet. We want to make sure the directory is curated. If the newsletter you added fits within our criteria, we will add it to the directory. You can send me the description and details for your newsletter, I will add it.

Good stuff. Kinda reminds me of an rss reader, but for newsletters. I used to be a big Google Reader fan, and these kind of products really help me.

@amitagr33708065 Thank you for your feedback Amit. I am a huge fan of RSS and associated products like Google Reader. I was really disappointed when they shutdown Google Reader. One of my motives is to keep the app simple and provide a familiar flow. I am glad it is working.

Hey! Cool :) What do you think are the main differences between your product and Stoop by @timraybould and @bobhoranjr? I've been religious user of their product.

@tim_nugmanov I like Stoop and used to use it. With Newslettrs, I am focused on bringing a simpler experience to the process of subscribing and reading newsletters.

So instead of something like say “skim” where it creates a newsletter of newsletters, your app allows you a single place to read it other then your email. Okay so how does it get to your app and not in our inbox ?

@hgottfried I am not sure I follow the question Hal.

I have been waiting all my life for this product! I just signed up. Up to now, I have been forwarded my newsletter signups to an hotmail account specifically designated to receive newsletters. However, they ended up in the graveyard of an email account, read on occasion. I like to set aside some time to read my newsletters once a week to see if they contain any value bombs. Newslettr looks like a winner. Just one question - do you have a way to import email newsletters from an email account to Newslettrs in one click? Ok maybe I am asking for too much! Otherwise, for now, I presume I make a list of my many signups and reregister with the @newslettr? Well done!

@newslettr @elodie_golden Thank you for your feedback Elodie. For now, there isn't an option to import all newsletters from an email account. We can add this feature to our pipeline and prioritize it if more people demand it.
