Gmail: how Fyxer organizes your inbox (labels and inbox view)
How Fyxer uses Gmail labels to keep your inbox clear.
Gmail uses labels instead of folders. Fyxer builds on that system to keep your inbox clear, predictable, and easy to work from.
You might notice differences between what's shown here and what you see in your inbox. We regularly test and refine how Fyxer works, so experiences can vary. Either way, you've got the right setup, and we'll keep this updated as things evolve.
How labels work in Gmail
Fyxer labels emails automatically, ranked by priority, with "To do" or "To respond" being your most important. This is followed by FYI, and then lower priority categories like Notification and Marketing.
Choose which categories appear in your inbox
You can decide which categories stay in your inbox, and which are filed away automatically under their labels.
Go to your Dashboard → Categorization. You'll see different options for how emails are handled:
Standard
Everything gets a label, and most stay in your inbox.
Focused
A short to-do inbox with just To respond/To do and FYI emails.
Show everything
Every label stays in your inbox, nothing is filed away.
Custom
Set each label yourself, one at a time.
Each option lets you decide whether the emails for that category either:
Stay in your inbox, with the label
Leave your inbox, and are archived under their label
Select Update preferences if you make any changes. Changes will apply to new emails going forward.
To keep your inbox focused on what matters most, select the Focused option.
Why conversation view must be turned on
Outlook sometimes splits email threads across folders if conversation view is off.
Turning it on makes sure:
All emails from the same thread stay grouped
Fyxer's categories look consistent
Drafts appear in the correct place
