In this article, we will examine the different ways in which Mailbird has undergone the most significant redesign ever to be rolled out - however, it's important to note that the Mailbird 3.0 redesign is very much a journey, and not a destination. It is a substantial step among the millions that preceded it and the millions that will follow.

There are countless intriguing facets to a redesign, ones that might not be immediately apparent to casual observers. Seemingly simple elements may have gone through dozens of iterations and involved hours of discussion, with the aim of offering all of our customers the ultimate email experience.

 

We have focused much of our efforts on making sure that our customers can enjoy a fresh, modern and sleek interface - this involved reassessing each and every element inside of Mailbird to understand how we could either refine or improve its place and function within our product.

Below you will find a detailed list of the most significant improvements to its design, which also include new features which allow you to decide how Mailbird will look and work best for your own specific needs.

  • Optimized screen space
    • The new screen layout has been tailored to adapt seamlessly to the latest screen sizes, providing customers with an immersive experience.
