Notion’s New Customizable Mail App Promises a Fresh Take on Email Management

Notion is set to expand its productivity suite by launching a Mail app in early 2025, designed to offer users unprecedented customization and integration with Notion’s tools. Built for flexibility, the Mail app will allow users to set up unique inbox views, layouts, and workflows that adapt to their specific needs. The app will initially support Google and Gmail accounts on both iOS and Android platforms, integrating with Notion’s calendar for meeting scheduling and featuring Notion AI for streamlined, personalized communication.

Customization and Automation with Notion AI

The Mail app will use Notion AI to automate tasks like email archiving, organization, and drafting. One-click snippets and AI-generated responses simplify communication, while integration with Notion Calendar will facilitate easy meeting scheduling. Notion’s philosophy of “distilling tools to their building blocks” means users can create an email experience that feels custom-built, whether they’re managing projects or personal correspondence.

Expanding Notion’s Productivity Ecosystem

In addition to Mail, Notion is enhancing its offerings with a Forms tool, a feature reminiscent of Google Forms for collecting responses. Users can also explore new layout customization options and automation for sending notifications through Gmail. Notion’s expanded marketplace now offers a selection of templates that users can browse and purchase to enhance their workflows.

With Mail, Notion seems poised to challenge traditional productivity apps, aiming to be the ultimate one-stop solution. For those eager to try out this new experience, Notion’s Mail app is currently in preview, with a waitlist available on the company’s website.
