Five Star Sanebox ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Declutters my email inbox from those pesky unwanted spammers and companies. Moves them into a folder before automatically deleting them saving me time and hassle. I would strongly recommend if you want to take back control of your email address.

Love to hear this! 🎉 Thanks for sharing how SaneBox is helping you take back control.

If you ever want to fine-tune things further, a couple tips:

Drag unwanted senders to SaneBlackHole to never see them again.

Use SaneLater/SaneNews for low-priority stuff, and the Cleanup tool or custom rules if you’d like older emails auto-cleared on your schedule.

We’re here if you want help dialing it in even more. Thanks for recommending us! 🙌

I forget that I have it

Great email manager-- I honestly forget it is there which I think is a good thing. I don't have to deal with rifling through hundreds of junk emails a day, and the emails that are from senders that don't feel insanely important but that I don't want to full remove from my inbox are all compiled together in my "digest" where I can sift through and read what I want from my "meh" pile of emails that I can't decide if they matter to me or not. I would say it is worth the money, for me at least, a small price to pay for organization that keeps up with itself so that it's one less thing I have to think about

SaneBox walked into my inbox, and changed how I will approach email forever!

SaneBox walked into my inbox, and cleaned house, pretty much instantly! I was happy with just the default settings, but with the advantage of a ruleset that learns as it goes, the service is easily worth 10X every penny that you spend on it.

Highly recommended for anyone who currently spends too much time with inbox management!

Absolutely love the service

Absolutely love the service. Yes, I was skeptical at first like many. Do I need a service to manage my email? Turns out the answer was yes after trying it.

I honestly spend far less time with my email, I deal with the inbox important stuff and come back later to look at the newsletters and read later material.

SaneBox adds sanity to Inbox

SaneBox has really brought some sanity to my Inbox. While Google's algorithms do a good job for the most part, they were sufficiently off to the point that I was constantly worrying about missing an incorrectly classified email. I don't have that problem with SaneBox. Further, with SaneBox I am free to use any email client I want which was liberating. I highly recommend the service.

I have saved HOURS using SaneBox and the best part is that I am in total control. I trash the stuff I want to trash rapidly all at one time. I can choose the stuff I want to read easily. I can train it to put stuff where I want it to go. AND, here's the fun part, I can tell it to hold an email and bring it back to me whenever I tell it to! I think I'm in love.

I LOVE SANEBOX!!

I LOVE SANEBOX!!! It's taken my overloaded, overwhelmed inbox (and brain!) and turned it into the thing an inbox should be- an efficient way of communicating that helps the process instead of that thing that you dread seeing each day! I especially love the ability to get an email to come back to you at a day and time that you tell it you need to, but get it out of your sight until then My inbox has gone from having 1000-2000 emails in it at any given time to me feeling slightly put out if there's more than 20 when I log on- and I've finished on inbox zero for 3 weeks in a row now! Even better, I introduced my sales manager to it and within 3 days he'd gone from over 8000 to inbox zero!!! GET THIS APP- you will NOT regret it for a SECOND!!!

Must have saved years of time by now

I've been using SaneBox for a long time, and I think I must have saved months and months of time by now. Certainly, it's been far easier and less stressful to manage my email. No junk in my Inbox. A nice folder of things to read later when I have time. Simple to set up. Simple to use. Helps keep me Sane, just like they say. I've recommended to many friends. And now, to you!

SaneBox has saved me so much time

SaneBox has saved me so much time. I can not imagine going back to using email without it. There are similar offerings out there, but they either sell my data or send additional advertisements. SaneBox costs a little money but it is so worth it. I love being able to train it by simply moving an email to the appropriate folder. Their customer support has also been quick and helpful when I needed to configure something more advanced.
