  1. [R1] Superhuman Mail 1/5 · US Greed has reached new heights.: I don’t care how good I’m doing at life. I cannot see myself ever paying upwards of $400 per year just for email. And I don’t expect anything to change just because I’m writing this review, I’m voicing my opinion and voting with my dollars to not do it.
  2. [R15] Superhuman Mail 3/5 · US Amazing… except: I have tried Superhuman about 4 times now. Same conclusion every time. What it does… it does WELL! Really well! Developers are AWESOME! Marketing too. Product design not so much. Missing very important features. 1. Shared inbox for multiple accounts. 2. Does not prioritize new emails well. Meaning you can create split and automations but you have to train it over time like fanc
  3. [R39] Superhuman Mail 2/5 · US No unified inbox?: This could be a great app. I’m surprised we aren’t given the option to have a unified inbox. That’s a pretty standard feature.
  4. [R62] Microsoft Outlook 5/5 · US My feedback on Outlook application: This application is very helpful for me because it organises my meetings and reminds me of important things. I really appreciate tools like Outlook, along with AI and other helpful resources, as they make my life easier.
  5. [R6] Superhuman Mail 3/5 · US Stuck on Google sign in: I’ve tried this app on two different devices and two different emails. And I cannot sign in with a google account. I just give access to all permissions and then the loading screen loops.
  6. [R24] Superhuman Mail 3/5 · US Waste of time: I’m sure this is a great email app. Unfortunately, I’ll never find out BC it was IMPOSSIBLE to use! WTH! “Superhuman will be activated during your consultation” means exactly nothing to me, but before deleting the app I googled the phrase, just to be fair. According to Reddit, apparently I was supposed to receive an email message requesting to schedule a 30-minute “onboarding” chat!
  7. [R53] Superhuman Mail 1/5 · US Usability issues: Terrible usability, hard to navigate and hard to reply to the emails on the cell phone.
  8. [R63] Microsoft Outlook 3/5 · US Review: I find the calendar a bit cumbersome and confusing when i am in a rush and the way emails are grouped makes it unclear what is most recent, and causes confusion looking for an email (latest) at times - On apple ipad
  9. [R4] Superhuman Mail 1/5 · US Very poor AI, scheduling makes mistakes, not meant for agent use: The AI is very bad, their main prompt is very bad. It doesn’t correctly schedule meetings without conflicts. Mcp is buggy and you’re always “sending yourself” ,
  10. [R7] Superhuman Mail 1/5 · US Scamming users for monthly subscriptions: Unreal that this app has charged me $20/month for 2+ years in spite of my repeated attempts to ensure my subscription has ended. Utterly deranged behavior from the creators of some of the worst, lowest impact ai I've ever used. Just download claude
  11. [R49] Superhuman Mail 1/5 · US Doesn’t Work: I have downloaded multiple times. It won’t login. It just sits and spins after I enter credentials.
  12. [R61] Microsoft Outlook 2/5 · US Calendar stopped refreshing: On one of the recent updates the calendar to stop refreshing. Meetings are moved but not being reflected in the calendar. I’ve tried restarting, still out of date.
  13. [R13] Superhuman Mail 1/5 · US Insane 🤯: Pricing is insane. And so is the name.
  14. [R41] Superhuman Mail 1/5 · US No trial option, just an expensive starter option.: I saw this productivity email app and was interested in trying it with a few email accounts. Initial setup revealed a 240$ yearly subscription and that killed all interest in this app. Good luck.
  15. [R22] Superhuman Mail 1/5 · US Misleading Billing Information and Confusing Support Experience: Very disappointed with the support and billing experience. I prepaid for three months under the belief that I was paying for Superhuman Mail. After payment was made, I was then told by the support representative Ksenia that I had prepaid for a service that does not include Mail, which was extremely confusing and not clearly communic
  16. [R43] Superhuman Mail 1/5 · US Kept charging me after I cancelled: As title says. Account pages shows cancelled. No way to get in touch with them. Ghosted by email. What a scammy company.
  17. [R57] Superhuman Mail 1/5 · US Couldn’t even get it to work: Didn’t work after many attempts-customer service didn’t even help.
  18. [R64] Microsoft Outlook 1/5 · US Bad: stupid idiots can't recover my stolen account
