Popular email management program Mailbox has just been updated to version 2.1. And the update brings a number of nice new features.
First up, the app is now translated into 19 different languages: Chinese (both Simplified and Traditional), Danish, Dutch, French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Malay, Polish, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Spanish (both European and Latin American), Swedish, Thai, and English.
The app will now also save attachments directly to Apple’s Passbook, which is great for airline boarding passes and more.
Emails can be printed straight from the app by tapping the three small dots at the top right of a thread or an individual message view. In the same area, users can star messages or mark them as spam.
And to help keep an email box neat and tidy, Mailbox can now also permanently delete items from the spam and trash.
The major 2.0 update of the app arrived back in April. Along with the auto-swipe functionality, that version brought even more integration with Dropbox.
A universal app designed for the iPhone/iPod touch and iPad/iPad mini, Mailbox can be downloaded now on the App Store for free.
If you’re also interested in using Mailbox on your Mac, you can sign up for the beta program here.
