G+_Phil Chung Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 So, I just got my invite for Google Inbox and have installed the Android app. It will take some getting used to, but has potential i think. What I am finding though are that notifications for new emails aren't coming through or are slow. I receive a notification on my Gmail app, but to see the email in Inbox, I have to do a pull to refresh to see the email. Is anyone else getting slow/no notifications in Inbox?

G+_Cass Morrison Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 And I love it mostly because I G+ reminders show up there. Works way better than lebels for me. I think as more email accounts get incorporated through GMail it will be even better for me. Everyone's looking for different things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Mark Stronge Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 You need to check that notifications are turned on for each bundle I think. And then turn off gmail app notifications? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Phil Chung Posted October 28, 2014 Author Share Posted October 28, 2014 I'll certainly give it a go. What I do like is that I can see if there are new items in social/promotions/updates without me having to pull up the label in the Gmail app (which is where I live most for my email), but not get notified about new items arriving in those labels. What I want are notifications for my unbundled emails that come through. That's what I'm not seeing at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Phil Chung Posted October 28, 2014 Author Share Posted October 28, 2014 Mark Stronge Thanks, I think the key was switching off notifications in Gmail. I'm used to Gmail getting my emails almost immediately. Inbox is a bit slower at showing my email in the app. I'm going to give this a try for a week or so.

G+_roeiboot (rudeboy) Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 notifications come in at the same time as on the Gmail app for me. although have since turned them so I don't get double notifications.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Holly Hughes Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 I know you don't know me, but would you mind sending me an invite? I've been waiting awhile now :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Phil Chung Posted October 29, 2014 Author Share Posted October 29, 2014 Holly Hughes I don't seem to have the ability to send out invites... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Craig Lambert Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 I could use an invite if you have any left... This may help: If you have Inbox, just hover over the "+" icon (or tap it on iOS or Android), and look for the golden-ticket icon above the "Compose" icon. It says "Invite to Inbox." Select it, and enter the email address of the person you want to invite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Phil Chung Posted October 29, 2014 Author Share Posted October 29, 2014 That's the problem, I don't see the invite icon when I hover over the + icon on the web or tap the + icon in the Android app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Phil Chung Posted October 29, 2014 Author Share Posted October 29, 2014 Craig Lambert Holly Hughes Okay, it seems the invites won't be available for me to send until tomorrow. If you still need them tomorrow, send me a message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_roeiboot (rudeboy) Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Philip Chung indeed, I have heard that, and some got them immediately. odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Elizabeth Whitmire Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 I'm loving Inbox. And I haven't noticed any delay in receiving notifications. The only thing I'm missing so far is the ability to apply more than one label to a message. I hope that will be added at some point soon, because I use multiple labels on certain messages for organization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Craig Lambert Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Philip Chung I was hoping Google would have hooked me up with an invite this morning but alas, no luck. If you do wind up getting some, I sure would appreciate it. If not, no worries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
