Email at its best, by Basecamp

Features & Capabilities

HEY Email by Basecamp reimagines how you manage mail. It trades hacks for built‑in workflows that prioritize privacy, calm organization, and focus. Features like Screen to block unwanted messages, naturally grouped conversations, and the ability to read multiple messages at once turn email into a focused, readable feed. You’ll also find an attachment library, Set Aside, and The Paper Trail to keep receipts and important files organized.

Private notes, subject rename, configurable notifications, and a dedicated Reply Later workflow give you flexible ways to act on messages. You can bundle heavy senders, unfollow threads, and block trackers to protect your privacy. Designed as a Chrome extension, HEY fits into your web workflow while preserving your peace of mind and productivity.

User Reviews

Overall sentiment is mixed: many users praise HEY for dramatic productivity gains and a clean, elegant interface, but multiple reviewers cite persistent search and performance issues, plus platform limitations (no external accounts, iOS version requirements) that hinder broader adoption.

Pros

Significant time savings and streamlined email workflow.
Simple, elegant design with thoughtful organization.
Responsive customer support reported by multiple users.
Some reviewers consider HEY a standout, best-in-class email experience (life-changing).

Cons

Search functionality is buggy and unreliable.
Performance issues: slow swiping, delays, and overall buggy behavior across devices.
Requires the latest iOS and forces updates, locking users out on older devices.
Cannot link or use existing non-HEY email accounts; limited to hey.com addresses.

Update 2025- 3 years with this app no fix on this bug. I am looking to move to another email. The app loses all my drafts. It knows I have written one but upon pulling it up, it's always gone. Subtracting three stars for this basic feature being so full of bugs. There's also no offline support. You can't read emails, mark emails as read, or pretty much anything unless you have a strong WiFi connection.

One of the worst email products to come out since Google circles. The search functionality is impossible to use, and the calendar doesn’t even import the iCal file correctly from anyone. On top of that, they will lose your email and blame you for it. So, don’t trust this company or its mail app. Save money, folks.

Recently, the button copy for filtering out emails from unknown senders has been changed to feature a curse word on the iPhone app. This is unprofessional and not acceptable.
