Q: Who is this app designed for?
A: If you have CarPlay and are looking for a way to hear your email, this app is for you.
Do you get a lot of email and need to stay up to date? Spend time in your car that could be put to productive use?
For many people, their email inbox is their primary focus - your communication with your coworkers, boss and direct reports, customers and suppliers.
If you are trying to do Inbox Zero, this is a great tool to help.
Anyone who takes responsibility for their own work time will like it, particularly as people in leadership or management roles.
If you drive to work or drive between appointments, Speaking Email CarPlay extends your available work hours to give you more time in your day and get your email on the move.
Inbox zero enthusiasts will particularly like the chance to use downtime to prune their inbox.
