Comments and Reviews

   
Comment summary: Spike is praised for its innovative chat-style interface, which turns traditional emails into a message-like format, making response times faster and more efficient. Users appreciate the priority inbox for filtering junk and the seamless integration across devices. The platform's group chat function and modern approach are noted as beneficial for team projects and professional communication. However, there is a neutral mention of the lack of support for accounts with 2FA.

Spike 10 Times better than Gmail app. It's has dark theme, and so much more options. Useful if you have junk in inbox.

No support for accounts with 2FA

Sivan

Hi artexjay, Spike definitely supports accounts with 2FA. You will need to generate an app specific password via your email provider. If you need help with that, our team will be happy to help! Just shoot us a message to chat@spikenow.com

Tried various email clients for use across mobile and desktop, and Spike has been the easiest and cleanest to use. Works well across devices, has all the features - including a great snooze with no bugs - and does a good job of allowing control over priority emails and what gets filtered to "other" inboxes. Fast, easy to use, and reliable.

Spike is an amazing alternative to the out-of-date traditional e-mail client. I used to get anxiety from e-mail, and I felt like it wasn't made for me! I LOVE the Chat style of communicating.... Even if I am speaking with a Professor or a Boss, and I have to keep things formal- it's so nice to be able to see clearly our whole thread.... Also - the group function?! Out of this world! It's so great for team projects, for University and for work! As well, if I ever have a question their website has so much information and I can also easily send their team a message and they reply to me! Really I love Spike
