What Inbox Narrator is
An email tool that reads your inbox to you. Unread messages become an audio summary you can listen to through a voice assistant, and you can also ask questions about the mail.
It is for screening what matters, not for replacing a mail client.
What you can do with it
- Hear a summary of unread mail each morning
- Get a daily podcast from your inbox
- Ask questions about mail content
- Listen through Siri or Google Assistant
- Triage without opening a screen
- Decide what to handle first
Who it is for
- Commuters and morning planners
- People with high email volume
- Anyone who prefers listening to reading
- Users who want triage before detail
What to watch out for
- It needs access to your mailbox, so review the authorisation scope carefully
- Confidential or regulated mail may be unsuitable for a third-party service
- Voice playback on shared devices can expose private mail to other people
- It does not reply for you: tone and content stay yours

What is the risk of connecting mail?
It requires mailbox access. Confirm account security, authorisation scope and whether a third-party assistant suits your industry.
