Newsletter Reader by Meco 4+

I’ve tried numerous newsletter apps (Matter, Readwise Reader, Slick Inbox, Stoop Inbox) and web services (Mailscribe, Subscrib) and Meco is my favorite. It has the most seamless user interface workflow—from adding newsletters to moving on to the next ones to searching and filtering—and feels polished all around.

Like many people these days I try to stay away from Gmail and think twice before granting apps access to my email accounts. That's why I tried all the other apps mentioned above before Meco. I read the privacy policy and FAQ, and the developer seems uninterested in the shady business of selling customer data, which is great, but you never know these days.

So I ended up creating a new Gmail dedicated to Meco and newsletters. I'm glad I did. A new Gmail for Meco is a good idea even if you aren't concerned about privacy, because Meco creates many Gmail labels and filters for its functionality. One idea I have for the developer is to at least nest those labels under an umbrella label "Meco" so the UUID messiness can be hidden from view. I noticed that Meco-created labels are hidden by default, but it still creates a mess on the sidebar when the label list is expanded.

Other than that, I highly recommend this well-designed app. Kudos to the development team!

Download this app and never look back, it quite literally changed my life. I get notified as my newsletters come in and I’m able to stay on the cutting edge of my interests. Where as before I’d have my email cluttered and didn’t know what was coming in. They have dark mode love that and I love that I can swipe left and right to go forward or backward a story. Its so worth it.

I am curious to see what this app has to offer. There are some wonderful features but the cost is exorbitant compared with other platform offerings. I would like to see how others are doing in the platform as well. It seems that I am only getting a little more information than before. Because it is AI the app is very good at making sense to users and not for users. One way usability. If this were to change I would find more benefits to continue using this app. User control is extremely valuable in a world of mobile devices prone to ransomware and cyber threats. Visibility increases are essential to tracking the users value of informational interfacing. Otherwise, I would recommend soliciting feedback from alternative sources to help improve your product quality.
