It looks like they're shutting down the Inbox app and the alternative is to move to Gmail: LINK

You think Google is going to get rid of that spying apparatus?

Google gets a lot of their data from scanning your emails, so I doubt that.

There is a gmail inbox app that is going away in the next couple months. Gmail is not going anywhere.

It's being replaced by Google Chat. Which I'm still getting used to.

Anyone else unhappy about this? I love Inbox. I'm too old to be learning a new email system.

Is google doing this because not many people ever switched over to Inbox?

Google is doing this because this is how they operate. They are constantly shuffling in and out competing versions of the same products instead of taking the one product they already make in an area and improving it. They must pretty regularly cycle through the people in charge of these areas to produce the lack of coherent vision and development anarchy that seems to be in place.

Hangouts is nothing but spam. I'll be glad to see it go.
