Amie Review: Features, Pricing, Pros & Cons

Amie Calendar

Amie doesn't try to hide what it is and isn't. It's a calendar at the core and like many of the other best daily planners on the market, they've gone and added some basic task creation functionality.

Where they've gone a step further is actually pulling in email to the mix. Depending on the type of person you are, maybe you want to turn emails into tasks and schedule them directly on your calendar in a time blocking fashion.

When comparing Motion vs Amie, you're going to see that Motion has gone the approach of keeping email separate (assuming you might be using your favorite email app like Superhuman), and allowing you to simply forward in emails to _{[email protected]} for them to be automatically scheduled on your calendar, whereas Amie is moving toward pulling in your emails and allowing you to respond to them from right within the app. Two totally different approaches, and one that is probably quite a personal decision.

Amie Email

Amie is definitely not a full email client, although it is listed on the best email clients page, that's because it allows you to time-block on your calendar emails, and then respond to those emails from right within Amie.

That said, view it as more of a "feature" and less of a software category. When comparing Superhuman vs Amie for example, there's no match—Amie is not a full-fledged email client.

Amie Mobile App

Amie currently only has an iOS mobile app, for which you're able to view and schedule your emails on your calendar as well. There hasn't been word as to when the Android Mobile app will be released or if it's coming.

One thing to note is they have a MacOS desktop app, no Windows app (although a Web App does exist), but that's usually a sign that Android is quite a ways off, since they aren't prioritizing a Windows app. That said, you can still use Amie on Windows via any of the best web browsers available on the market today.
