Message Finder 2.0 is here

Start the new year off with a brand-new version of Message Finder for iPhone. We’ve redesigned and rewritten Message Finder to make it simpler, faster, and more useful.

Message Finder makes email easier on the go. Locate a message with just 2-3 taps; no need to search, remember the subject line, or even type. Here’s an overview of the major new features:

★ View attachments right in the app

★ Find email from friends and family, in addition to companies

★ Choose your favorites and access them from a single screen

★ Forward and reply to messages

We’ve also made a number of small improvements to Message Finder:

  • We’ve added support for AOL, in addition to Yahoo! and Gmail.
  • You can quickly access categories with the new category drawer.
  • If you want to see the latest Travel or Offers emails, they’re just a tap away. You can now choose how your emails are sorted, either alphabetically by sender or by date.

Plus, Message Finder is still 100% free (and ad-free).

We think you’ll love the new Message Finder. It’s much more pleasant to use and more useful, too. Give it a try and share your feedback! We really appreciate it.

Unsubscribe from email, right from your iPhone

We’ve released a brand-new app that will help you simplify your inbox. Introducing Unsubscriber for iPhone!

More and more, email is on-the-go and on our phones. With Unsubscriber for iPhone, when you notice email in your inbox that you no longer want, you can unsubscribe in just two taps.

Open Unsubscriber and choose the emails, offers, and newsletters you no longer want to receive, then tap Unsubscribe and never see them again.

You don’t have to answer any questions or remember your password. It couldn’t be easier.

Unsubscriber works with your Gmail and Yahoo! Mail accounts. When you unsubscribe, all future emails from that company are routed directly to your Unsubscribe folder, so you can focus on the messages you care about.

If you make a mistake or change your mind, it’s easy to resubscribe, right from the app. Once you do, any new messages will go straight to your inbox.

GigaOM’s Eliza Kern got a look at Unsubscriber during Inbox Love last week. Here’s what she had to say:

I was most excited about this app, which addresses my personal pet peeve of email listservs that spam you with advertisements and newsletters you really don’t want. The app aggregates the different email newsletters you’re subscribed to, and provides a handy way to unsubscribe en masse.

Unsubscriber is the simplest way to stop emails you don’t want. Already, people have unsubscribed from more than 8,000 email lists! Grab it for free from the App Store and let us know what you think.

New in Organizer: New navigation and simplified settings

Andy Smith recently joined the team here at OtherInbox as our new in house UX and UI developer. We’ve been keeping him busy with some fun new projects, but he has recently had time to improve our Organizer product as well. Today for Yahoo! Mail users (coming soon for Gmail and AOL fret not) is a cleaner navigation bar.

I’ll think you’ll agree that less is more, and the new design lets you quickly and easily move about the app. You’ll also notice that your personal dashboard is now the default page when you open the app. While he was cleaning things up Andy also took the opportunity to simplify the Settings page, nice work.

Don’t be shy about letting us know what you think or what else we can do to improve your Organizer experience. Simply drop us an email at help@otherinbox.com, tweet us on Twitter or post up on Facebook!
