storyline is a free web app to explore emails of your Gmail account, view upcoming events, preview and download attachments, and preview spreadsheets shared with you. It is a multipurpose app, and the best part of this app is that all supported options can be accessed from a single platform.
You don’t have to go back n forth to read emails, preview attachments, and open Google Calendar in a new tab to check future events. All you need to do is, sign in with your Google account and it will provide the list of all mails, events, and attachments.
In the screenshot above, you can see the list of all mails and events at left side on its interface. And at right side, it helps to read selected email, preview attachments and spreadsheets, and download attachments.
Its beta version worked quite well during my testing. However, search feature is not available in this app, which could be handy if users need to find a particular document or email. Apart from this, it should provide a feature to either highlight or bold unread emails. Above all, there should be an option available to sort spreadsheets, emails, and emails with attachments. I personally believe these suggestions would be quite helpful (if possible to add) to make it more valuable.
