Acompli for iOS

Acompli for iOSAcompli for iOS,  is an email client which announced just a few days ago with the promise to offer "a better mobile email experience for business professionals". Acompli allows you to attach files easily, swipe to delete or defer emails, and schedule meetings effortlessly with a fully integrated calendar. Acompli can even surface your most important email so you can stay focused on what matters.

You can download the app directly on your iOS device through the Apple App Store or by using the following link:

Requirements iOS 7.0 or greater


Acompli is compatible with Microsoft Exchange, Office 365, Google Apps, Gmail, iCloud, Yahoo, Outlook.com, Hotmail, MSN and Live. It aggregates all your inboxes into a singular place, which is a great start. Being able to tackle everything in one go is important, especially when you get a lot of email. You’re able to switch between inboxes if you wish, too.

The app itself is well design, minimal and attractive, with an easy to use layout which borrows elements from other popular email apps. In your inbox, you're able to fast swipe emails into your archive or slow swipe them into the trash, encouraging you to action your emails right there. There’s also thread view for messages, something that every modern email app should support.

What sets Acompli apart is that your calendar and location sharing is built right into new email composition. The Location Sharing feature, as its name suggests allows you to embed a pin of your location in an email.

The Calendar integration allows you to click the calendar icon to quickly pull up your calendar in the app (rather than switching over to the calendar app) and quickly create an invite, or, suggest times that are available for a meeting and let the recipient pick a time that suits. You’re able to manage your full calendar within Acompli, completely negating the need for the native calendar app, as well as maintaining your contacts stored in your email account.


The company has spent a lot of time focusing on speed, too, and decided that the email protocols that exist (like IMAP and Activesync) aren’t mobile friendly, are taxing on the battery or just generally slow. Instead of using these protocols, the service proxies the email through its own servers, rather than the various providers. All data is encrypted in transit and the app doesn't store credentials on your device.
