Inbox When Ready

Considerations

Inbox When Ready is a great email management tool for professionals and teams struggling with email overload and frequent distractions.

Best for reducing email interruptions

By hiding the inbox until scheduled check-in times, it prevents users from getting sidetracked by constant email notifications.

Works seamlessly with Gmail

As a browser extension for Gmail, Inbox When Ready is easy to install and integrate into existing workflows.

Not a full email productivity suite

While effective for reducing distractions, it does not provide email automation or prioritisation features like Superhuman or Spark.

Best for:

  • Professionals overwhelmed by constant email checking.
  • Teams needing scheduled email focus sessions.
  • Users aiming to reduce digital distractions and improve workflow.
