Shift For Mac

Shift is a desktop email client designed to help you work with multiple Gmail and Outlook accounts while having access to the associated Calendar and Drive services, in a unified interface.

To help you configure the connection to your email accounts, Shift comes with Setup wizards for Gmail, Inbox, and Outlook. You get to set a name for the account and associate a color to make it more easily identifiable.

Note that, in each case, you need to authorize the Shift application to connect to and manage the email account. Once everything is configured, you will be able to switch between accounts within the Shift main window via the left side panel.

For advanced account configuration, make sure to navigate to the Settings panel: here you can change the avatar image, toggle the notifications and the unread badge or set the unread mode.

The Shift application is essentially designed to access the web apps associated to each email account without cluttering your browser. The best part is that you can also switch to the Calendar view or access the online cloud storage service associated with the account.

Since you can access all this information within the same user interface, Shift is a great option if you need to reduce desktop clutter without losing on functionality.

At the same time, Shift integrates with the Notification Center to send alerts and keeps track of the unread emails count, so you can easily stay on top of everything and notice if a message requires immediate attention.

Shift is an email client that combines the time-efficiency of using a separate app for accessing your email with all the features made available in the web apps associated with these accounts.

The best part is that you get to interact with the calendar and online storage drives connected to the email accounts within the same user interface.

Worth mentioning is that the Shift app is subscription based, so you need to upgrade your account to access all features. Moreover, make sure to read the Shift Privacy Policy to learn more about the service.
