Aura Pro For Mac

Aura Pro offers you the possibility to keep an eye on your Gmail accounts without having to add them to your Apple Mail client. The utility connects to your accounts and displays both email notifications and Google Apps alerts.

Upon the first launch, Aura Pro prompts you to set up your initial Gmail account: just provide your credentials and allow the application to view your email address, basic profile info, and the email messages and settings.

Later on, you can add new accounts via the Aura Pro Preferences window: you will be able to see all successfully connected accounts in the Aura status bar menu.

The same area allows you to quickly add the application to the list of login items, or to adjust the notification settings. You get to toggle the audio alerts and choose to receive only the important messages.

Aura Pro monitors all connected accounts and integrates perfectly with the Notifications Center in order to display message notifications. The best part is that Aura Pro also provides support for the Gmail Important function, which means that you can choose to see alerts only for very important messages.

Aura Pro is also able to deliver these functionalities without putting a strain on your Mac. On a 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo iMac with 6GB of RAM, Aura Pro barely used any CPU power, and needed around 40MB or RAM.

To conclude, Aura Pro offers you the possibility to track the activity of your Gmail accounts and Google Apps without having to use the Apple Mail client. As a result, you can harness the Notification Center capabilities while avoiding complicated setups.
