There are a ton of cool stuff in Spark Mail but I won’t go over each one of them. That aside, when I opened my iPad later that night, after a couple of seconds, all my other accounts are there. That’s why I had to add all my other accounts on my laptop since I need to access the Authenticator app on my phone. Once I switch apps, memorize the code, and go back to Spark, I have to go through the login process from the start. So, once I entered my password, I get asked for a passcode. It’s a bummer since I use multi-factor authentication (MFA) in all my accounts. One thing I didn’t like during the account setup process on the iPhone was whenever I switch apps, the login options reset to the beginning. After a few seconds, it showed up on my Mac. So, when I installed the app on my iPhone and iPad, all I have to do is login my the first email account, then everything just works.įor example, I added in my second and third email on my iPad. I then got a screen saying that I can use my email address to sync all my accounts across my devices. When I setup Spark, I originally created an account on my Mac. If my memory serves me right, a couple of years ago, when you set up a new Apple device and enter your Apple ID, everything syncs, including email accounts. One thing I noticed is that when I set up my iPad, after entering my Apple ID, I still have to manually configure all my mail accounts. Whether I’m at home, a cafe, or traveling, I need to be able to access all my stuff. I work pretty much anywhere as long as there’s an internet connection. Reason 1: SynchronizationĪs I mentioned, I have at least 10 email accounts. While I love Apple, it’s native apps don’t have the necessary functionalities that power users need. That means working on it if it’s a task for you, delegate it to other people and create a follow-up action, delete/archive it, or defer it in the future. The touch-it-once method means when you open an email (touch), you have to take action on it. Inbox zero means you either delete/archive your emails so that your inbox has nothing in it. I also apply Getting Things Done (GTD) principles. I practice two principles that any productivity guru tells you: inbox zero and touch-it-once. I mentioned earlier that I stay on top of my emails. Let me tell you why… 3 Reasons Why I Switched from Mail to Spark Mail
