It does’t happen very often, but Spark is an app I can full get behind. Like all iOS apps you can grab it exclusively from the Apple App Store.

For $10 it would have been a bargain for its functionality, free there is no reason not to download Spark. Readdle had other ideas and is offering it totally for free. Readdle’s apps usually trend towards the $3-10 range range and I would have gladly paid that price in a heartbeat.
given Readdle’s history though, I would expect a universal version to come eventually. If you’re on a iPad and you don’t want to run an iPhone app, you’re out of luck. If there’s an achilles heal at this point its that the apps is iPhone only at that stage. It functions exactly how my work flow wants an email client to be. When it comes to flaws, I’m hard pressed to find them. Yes, there’s even an Apple watch companion app. Spark has the potential to become a lot better than it is and its already the best email client I have ever used. The only real widget available is currently for the calendar, but there’s quite a few more coming soon like access to your Apple and Amazon accounts, flight information, packing tracking, weather, and even statistics information. You can rearrange the top and bottom sections, add new categories, change what the swipes do and add widgets. Most of the interface is customizable as well. The client is compatible with 1Password and LastPass extensions which makes signing in to these services very easy. You get Dropbox, Google Drive, Box, MS OneDrive, Evernote, OneNote, Readability, Pocket, and Instapaper. Its highly compatible with Google Gmail, MS Exchange, MS Outlook, Yahoo, iCloud, and quickly and easily sets up any custom email servers. What really makes Spark special is the customization and integration with other services. The search is powerful is has natural langue support. Spark also gives you access to the full mailboxes of all included email accounts. Email actions in your inboxes is based on half or full swipes so getting through unwanted emails, pinning them, or archiving is quick and ready. Its smart enough to know that you’re probably going to want to be looking at a job site’s email rather than put it in the newsletter section. So you can have all your important mail grouped by individual inbox and all the store emails you get lumped together. You can choose to customize your preference for each one. Each one of these categories can be viewed 3 different ways: a unified email box with all your accounts funneled in, grouped emails for each inbox, or each inbox separately. It tries to group emails into 5 different categories: New emails – emails you want to see most, Notifications, Newsletters, pinned emails, and your overall inbox. Spark features a really powerful smart mailbox with commonsense groups. The newest email client is one I’ve ended up absolutely loving, Spark from iOS developer Readdle. This is doubly so with email and RSS reader apps. As someone with a few lingering quirks from OCD, I can be very picky when it comes to apps. I’ve tried every single iOS client for iOS and for some reason I’ve decided for various reasons I’ve disliked something about them all except Apple mail enough where I stopped using them.
