Google has a new email app out called Inbox — but it's invite only for now

The new Gmail app from the Gmail team isn't technically just an email app, at least if you ask them. It's called "Inbox," and it's being released as an invite-only system that works on the web, Android phones, and iPhones. It feels completely native and fast on all of those systems. But it's a native and fast app that does something 10 degrees away from what you'd expect an email app to do. My first impression of Inbox is that it's really great, but a little weird.
The basic idea is this: it's still a Gmail app, but instead of giving you the traditional list of emails, it tries to intelligently give you more information so you don't have to even open them. Google Now-style info cards appear right in line with your message list, including things like flight times, package tracking, and photos.

Starting today, we’re sending out the first round of invitations to give Inbox a try, and each new user will be able to invite their friends. If Inbox can’t arrive soon enough for you, you can email us at inbox@google.com to get an invitation as soon as more become available.

Found it in the play store. Downloading now... It's taking forever. 2 minutes left

doesn't matter, if you don't have an invite, it won't work.

My e-mail with the request for invite got rejected. Guess they are getting flooded.

My second attempt got through. Also got the ASAP response.

i got an invite by going to Google Plus, searching for "inbox for gmail" and commenting on some people's post with a request.

How many invites do you get to give out now?
Posted on 10/22/14 at 2:47 pm to CubsFanBudMan
Zero so far.
ETA: the rumor is that each new user will get 3 invites to share starting on Friday.

Can I get one of yours Friday?

From what I've been told by a Google source, most of today's requests should be given invites from Google by the end of the week.

If anyone is feeling generous once you get yours I would love to test it out in iOS
