Group Text+ and Email+ Press Kit
Intro
We’re at it again, building apps to speed up tedious tasks on iOS. Working on Launch Center Pro has taught us so much about how and why people use shortcuts. To make shortcuts accessible to a much broader audience, we had to dramatically simplify and refine the features of Launch Center Pro and completely rethink the interface. We think these apps are the best work we’ve ever done.
Group Text+ makes it easy to message the people you care about using iMessage and SMS. You can mix and match contacts, groups, images, and text snippets to quickly compose messages. Email+ does the same, but with email. And they both have handy sharing extensions for use in other apps.
You might be wondering why we created two separate apps. We actually planned to build a single app, but as we started working on it we quickly realized that doing both messaging and email in a single app added a lot of complexity, both to the UI and to the code. Separating the apps allowed us to deliver a focused experience that makes each app better on its own.
