Beauty Meets Functionality: Well-Designed iOS Applications That Simplify Your Life

files from their smartphone, tablet or PC.

And thanks to its clear, categorized

interface that more closely resembles a messaging interface than a storage structure, locating, moving and deleting files has rarely been easier. Large push buttons, advanced settings and an overall look that meshes well with other popular iPhone apps round out what amounts to an exquisite work application.

Mailbox , a relatively new app, is in many

ways the email counterpart to Dropbox.

Adhering to the philosophy that an inbox

should never be closed before it’s emptied, Mailbox gently encourages its users to do something with every message they receive, whether it’s responding, deleting, archiving or pushing them away. An intuitive swiping feature allows users to delegate messages temporarily out of sight, perfect for those who find their inboxes

encumbered with non-critical emails.

The app employs a rather simple gesturing

system for most actions. Swipe to the left

and the message is set to snooze; to the right and it is archived. Selecting multiple messages is not supported, but given the rapidity in which emails can be sorted, this generally sought out feature proves less than essential. The interface is succinct and efficient without feeling underwhelming.

Evernote exchanges its filing cabinet
