Excerpt

What is Focused Inbox?

Focused Inbox is the natural successor to Clutter. Focused Inbox separates your inbox into two tabs—Focused and Other. Your most important emails are on the Focused tab while the rest remain easily accessible—but out of the way—on the Other tab. Focused Inbox also learns, and uses your reading habits, frequent contacts, and other data to create a unique Inbox experience that best reflects how you use your email.
