OnMail is an email service launched by Edison Software in 2020 to help users worldwide take back control of their inboxes with a first-of-its-kind permission-based inbox. Users are able to sign up for a new @onmail.com address, or get a custom domain of their choice.

Below are some examples of the writing I did for the webapp.

CHALLENGE

How to teach users how to use unique OnMail features and encourage them to try out others.

SOLUTION

Use simple language to educate users on features they haven’t encountered previously.

WHAT I DID

  • Collaborated closely with the design and engineering team to understand the products and create simple, clean copy


CREATING SPLITS

Splits are a simple way for users to organize the emails they receive with the rules OR, AND, and NOT. This section provided information for users to help them create their first ones.

THE OTHER INBOX

The Other inbox was created to help users skim through their marketing/less urgent emails in a visual format.

FILTERS

Information on why users should set up a filter.

A CUSTOM EMAIL ADDRESS

One of OnMail’s main focuses was the custom email address integration. From this page, users learn the steps to get a new domain for themselves.

QUICK ACTIONS

Educating users on Quick Actions they can take in their inbox.

ACCOUNT INFORMATION

Where the user can change their general account information and security details.

INBOX BREAK

Inbox Break is a feature built to help users take some time off from their notifications. Similar to Focus by Apple, Inbox Break helps users concentrate on the here and now.
