Gmail

It is almost impossible to open a new Android smartphone without Gmail, the application is built into the system before the user has time to select something. And this is not an accident: Google has built such a dense bundle of services that replacing the email client without loss of convenience becomes a separate task.

The junk mail filter here works at a level unattainable for third-party clients, the algorithms are trained on billions of emails. The search finds the desired email in seconds, even in an archive from ten years ago. Several mailboxes from different providers are combined into a single interface. An event from an email turns into a calendar entry with just one touch. Gemini analyzes correspondence and helps formulate responses, provided there is a paid subscription.

The dark side is also present. Drafts are blocked after switching between applications. Intrusive contact prompts are disabled only through an inconvenient workaround. The application collects geolocation and ten additional categories of data.

A tool with no real alternative, but with accumulated debts to users.

• Algorithmic spam filtering at a level unattainable by competitors.
