With Kiwi, you can use Google chat (Hangouts), access your Google Calendar, and even quickly access your Google Drive account.Īfter using Kiwi for the last few weeks, I’ve been very happy with the experience. This means you get all of Gmail’s (and Google’s) best features, instead of just a stripped down inbox. There’s no learning curve with Kiwi because it’s Gmail for the web, unleashed from the browser. Just sign in with your existing Gmail account(s), and you’re up and running. Getting started with Kiwi is super simple. This means you get the same Gmail you’ve used in Safari or Chrome, but with the added beauty of desktop notifications, easy account switching, gestures, and more. Kiwi ( $9.99 in the Mac App Store), originally on Kickstarter as Gmail for Mac, is a Mac application that offers the ease of use of the Gmail desktop web interface, as well as Gmail’s customizations, features, and settings, but in a native Mac application. Neither of these are the perfect solution, but a new app, launched today, is looking to create a native desktop experience out of the web-based email service. This leaves most users sticking with the stock Mail.app on the Mac, or using Gmail in their browser.

With the extreme popularity of Gmail, it’s no surprise that there are almost as many iOS email apps supporting the service as there are photo apps in the App Store.īut what about on the Mac? A search of the App Store yields only a handful of apps – most of which are pretty worthless (take my word for it). I use it, everyone here at MacTrast uses it, and you probably use it (or know someone who does).
