twobird is a new email application from ginger Labs, the company behind popular note-taking application Notability. Today, it’s launching fully after an early access beta that began in September last year.

New feature adds collaborative notes and to-do lists directly in-line with emails. New features include a slimmed-down UI that cuts out a lot of the cruft from emails like repeated signature or complex formatting.

An email app that feels a lot more like a real-time communication tool like Slack, complete with reactions, @ -mentions, and threaded comments. The approach of treating notes and lists on equal footing as emails is certainly an interesting idea.

twobird’s notes only live in twobird. There’s no cross-compatibility with Notability or other apps.
