MailTones gives you push email alerts and distinctive custom email sounds for different contacts, subjects and senders. Manage your email distractions - and know immediately when important messages arrive "In my tests I found MailTones to ...
Youre crazy if you think Im going to forward my email messages to some strange email address I dont know who you are or what capabilities you have on the other end I know as an app developer that its very shady to have people forwarding secure emails to an unknown account Very shady indeed Refund my money This app has questionable protocol that Apple has no control over Apple has no clue if these people are reading your emails This is how identity theft starts Im not forwarding my email to a stranger
I have been using this app for 3 years It work great for me Works Great for me
It constantly alerts me when I open other apps I have reloaded it several times and since Apple came out with VIP ALERTS I have removed it from my phone It is too quirky and unreliable too bad I cant get my money back I have stopped using it
At first I was a little hesitant about forwarding any emails to the developer until I realized I could use a throw away gmail address and set up my mail client to forward emails with sensitive content redacted Furthermore the reason we have to forward emails to the developer at all is because we have to play within Apples walled gardens That being said this app works as advertised and serves an important purpose Works like a charm
It just doesnt work I want my back No customer support Worthless I followed the instructions to a T
I was grateful to have Iain Barclay help me out I could NOT figure out the app and was ready to delete After an amazing proof of customer service the app is now working perfectly on my iphone I can distinguish MANY different email alerts for work I even set up the wah for my wife This is truly a fantastic app especially being in the data center industry Thank you SO MUCH Iain for your outstanding support It goes a long way AWESOMENESS
Its pretty good but for 999 there should be a lot more and better tones available Many of the tones are similar to each other eg Glass and Coins and many have a very cheesy Atari 2600 kind of sound When you assign tones by contact it only seems to work for one email address per contact Being able to assign by keyword would be nice like in PushMail The notifications also seem a little slow Overall its promising and will hopefully improve Id give it 3 stars if it werent so expensive as it is 2 stars for an average app at a premium price Needs Improvement
Thank you for this useful app Not bad
I really want to love MailTones I switched to it after PushMail was discontinued which worked flawlessly Everything is good with this app except for the alerts are VERY unreliable Sometimes you get them sometimes you dont I dont believe this is an Apple issue as I get proper push alerts from similar programs without any problem If the reliability was improved Id rate this a five star app While Im griping it would be very nice to be able to import your own custom alert sounds via iTunes File Sharing I want to love it but its unreliable
This app is a piece of CRAP CRAP
Ive been using this app for around 2 years now I havent had some of the reliability issues other users have reported but the donotdisturb based off of time seems to have broken in the most recent update Ive not contacted the developer for support because many of the other reviews seem to indicate that process is not usually fruitful Minimal updates
Tried for hours to replicate the instructions Gave up after receiving two emails with strange and obnoxious ring tone that couldnt find on my iPhone 4S It may be a great program but it spooked me and wasted my time Deleted this program
I would give this 0 stars if the option were available Buyer beware youll have to forward a COPY of your emails to this company for the app to work This is not stated on the product description and is a completely unacceptable breach of your privacy and surely a direct violation of any corporate email acceptable use policy Given the lack of ANY forewarning of the egregious release of privacy rights required to make this product work I will be requesting a full refund from Apple and strongly urge that you do the same if youve fallen victim to this scam of conscious omission Mr
Perfect for our paging and alert system Never had an issue with reliability It works
The only reason I got this was it is one of the few cusomizable tone apps out But the system is constantly stopping working and support only has advice for you when it is your fault that is the only condition they recognize Not reliable enough to notify you when your boss or client has sent you an important email and the tones and support have not had any effort put into them for years Cant record your own and sometimes the app mixes up the tones between IDs Then the system will just quit working for weeks at a time My advice is just PayPal the Developer 10 and dont even bother trying to use the package He just wants the money Not Reliable for Business Developer Not Paying Attention
This app works by forwarding your emails through their email address I guess its ok if you want a third party to have access to all your incoming emails no thanks No Privacy
This app used to work great but I guess their servers are overwhelmed without enough new revenue to upgrade So who is screwed You are if you pay for this app Completely useless
The program does work and I loved it for a while But lately it will alert me 34 maybe 8 times for a single email That needs a fix Works but repeat notifications
Awful I need to forward emails to them before I see them Complete lack of privacy Terrible product
With the death of PushMail I needed a replacement that worked the same I forward just the emails I want notifications for Problem is like others say the service is horribly unreliable I read somewhere they blamed Apple for slowness Its not Apple If it was people would dump them No its the servers we are sending email too And the repeat notification feature does not work as youd expect after reading the above Last issue if you do tap a notification it tries to open the app then just gives you a black screen for an eternity before you finally see the app then it jumps you to Mail So if you dont care about reliability go for it Unreliable
Cant believe been so expensive you think it would at least work Unreliable works for a few days and quit for no reason Frustrating This app is unreliable joke
I am generally very happy with this app and its features I would give it five stars but I have reduced my rating by one star because one important feature for me does not work and I have reduced it by another star because I have not received a response to the email I sent to the designated Electric Pocket email address regarding my problem I have an iPhone 5 I always receive the alerts quickly and correctly except I do not receive subsequent repeat alerts for cases where I have activated the repeat option I leave my iPhone untouched after the initial alert but the subsequent alerts that should come at 5 minute intervals never arrive This is disappointing Mostly good except for repeat feature
This is the worst app that I or my family had purchased for our iphones Reported the problem to their support and have not received any response That was three days ago If you are looking at this app look further Will update this reveiw if I ever hear from their support Mailtones Waste of money
nuff said It works
Works great Slightly complex set up due to several settings within the app Nd related settings in the iOS but those are one time decisions Very good app
I wrote and asked for a refund only to be complexly ignored The software requires that a copy of your emails be forwarded to this company in order to work Due to security reason I cannot allow this so the software is useless to me Not Happy
The app is a little temperamental sometimes but still a good app to have to get an alarm for certain emails Allows me to get system generated emails from work without having to constantly checking in or having someone do it for me Handy app
This is working great on my iPhone 4 Really shame it is so many moving parts but it really works fine Works great
Love getting a special alert when I get email from a VIP Neat App
I try for several hours to get this app to work I even communicated with the developer and they try to help but it useless I really too much time and my money wish I wont be able to get a refund Good luck wont work
As an IT person I get way too many emails each day but I do have some emails where I need to be notified This does a pretty good job since the iphone doesnt have a way to do this with its own alerting MailTones could be improved It would be nice if it kept a histoyr of the last 10 alerts or so because if you clear the alert and you forget what the alert was there is no way to find it Would be a nice feature Other than that it works really good Works Great
This app is horrible It does not work AT ALL Absolutely horrible
Was really excited thought Id have the flexibility I used to have on my blackberry to know which Email address and contacts were messaging me Unfortunately I feel I wasted my money on this app completely useless The instructions are semiclear it looks liike you can set up everything through the app but no you have to go into your individual Email accounts to set up the forwarding I spent several hours before I figured this out and the support page was not any more clear than the help section on the app In the end it hasnt work as I was led to believe it would If I could have given 0 stars I would have Bad Execution
This is such an incredibly bad idea This application expects you to forward a copy of every single email you receive to a strange email address Only an idiot would agree to do this Dangerous and unsafe
They need to provide a code for this app to work Left emails vms messages and nothing Lazy horrible Complete waste of money and time Horrible Horrible Horrible
Yes you have to forward your email however if you are nervous about sensitive emails getting sent to a different server create a filter that keeps them from getting forwarded for example any email I receive that includes the words password reset does not get forwarded Ive tried other apps that only do notifications from polling your inbox but they arent as reliable With boxcar 1 getting shut down I needed something that would let me distinguish between email accounts and this app does it Its a little spendy but it works Just works
It does what I needed it to Works great for me
I use this for fd paging alerts Works on both iPhone and iPad Mail tones works
MailTones is absolutely great Push email is truly lacking in IOS MailTones provides instant notification of incoming email messages Very configurable Couldnt live without it Electric Pocket keep up the great work This Is A Great Product
This app is absolutely perfect for my needs as an operations engineer I am able to configure alerts for different infrastructure alert emails I receive based on severity This helps me respond appropriately to serious problems while allowing me to sleep through problems that dont have to be dealt with immediately The UI is simple and effective the sounds cover a wide range of scenarios and filtering based on subject is absolutely killer Ive been looking for an app like this for weeks since Boxcar became useless Thanks for making such a great tool Excellent app
Knowledge Base on website is not complete and content stalenotrelevant Support has yet to respond to email query App is very expensive and as reported very unreliable no statement or advisory if their Mail services are up either making troubleshooting very difficult This has been experience by several in our office who use the app for their iPhones Bad support unreliable
Works for me Mail tones
Works well Love it
I got this app as pushmail got discontinued This program does not work You can not trust this app to alarm you of any message except test messages Not working
Spent 3 hours trying to get it set up and still no luck Seriously mad about this Biggest pile of crap Ive ever bought
Losing privacy by forwarding all emails to the company is not worth it WASTED
Great way to get email alerts Good app
Knowing that they get a copy of your email is bad news Waste of money
Nice Works well
I was very happy find app after looking for several weeks I needed to replace my Blackberry Level 1 notifications with something on the iPhone for critical pages that I CANNOT miss The proved itself to be the best of all the apps I tried and it had remained dependable Greatly appreciated Great for tech support
