On-device AI · iOS TestFlight

You gave up on your inbox.Swipe it back.

Mail Swip turns your Gmail into a stack of cards. Swipe right to keep, left to trash. An AI on your phone tells you what each email is, before you decide.

You know the feeling.

Your inbox isn’t broken because you’re lazy. It’s broken because every email asks for the same effort: open, read, decide, archive. Your brain noped out a long time ago. Fair.

One thumb. One decision. One stack of cards.

Mail Swip is a triage app, not another email client. It pulls your Gmail, runs each message through an AI on your phone, and stacks the results as cards. Swipe right to keep. Swipe left to trash. Trashed emails go to your Gmail bin. Kept emails stay untouched, ready for you to actually read, for once.

The AI isn’t deciding for you. It’s labeling Newsletter, Promotional, Transaction, Social, Alert, Personal, and flagging what needs a reply. You decide. Faster, because you have context before you tap.

How it works

  1. 01

    Connect Gmail

    Sign in with Google. Mail Swip reads your inbox. That’s the only server it talks to.

  2. 02

    The AI labels

    Each email gets a category and a flag for whether it needs a reply. The model runs on your phone. Your email content never leaves the device.

  3. 03

    You swipe

    Right keeps. Left trashes. Hold to fetch new mail. Undo if your thumb slipped.

What you get

The honest answers

Other inbox apps want you on a laptop with a coffee and 90 minutes. Mail Swip wants the seven minutes you’re already on your phone.

Yes. The AI runs on your phone. Mail Swip’s only server is your email provider itself. Your email content isn’t stored on our backend. Not for training. Not at all.

You get a configurable undo window before anything hits your inbox. After that, “trash” is your provider’s trash, same as always. Nothing is permanently gone.

The newsletters you’ve been ignoring stop being a wall of guilt and start looking like a feed. Beta testers report opening newsletters again, for the first time in months.

A solo-built app from a designer who got tired of his own inbox.

“I had thousands of unread emails. I gave up. Then I built the app I wanted: triage by thumb, on the train, AI on the phone, nothing in the cloud. I started reading my newsletters again. That’s when I knew.”
