Mailbox – How to ruin customer trust. (opens in new tab)

To counter this - installed 2.0, dropbox setup was just a matter of copying/pasting my password from 1Password (took ~10 seconds), and all my accounts/settings were there just fine.

Bugs are frustrating, but please realize that sometimes they happen despite best efforts. Lets keep small annoyances like this perspective and not say they're "ruining customer trust." Save that claim for situations like selling your data or generally being evil and untrustworthy.

I hope you reached out to the development team with a constructive bug report to help them track down your issue.

I installed the update, got the prompt to connect to Dropbox, clicked cancel and continued using the app the way i used to.

Pretty surprised the author has never seen crashes. I've been using Mailbox for quite a while now and it regularly crashes on large HTML mails (in my case the massive update emails generated by Confluence). Nonetheless it's still the best email client on IOS so I stick with it.

I don't see this post as Mailbox losing trust. If they are peaking at our data, or selling it in a way we were not aware of I'd consider that a breach of trust. But if a product simply get's bugs (which all new updates for most any product do) I don't see that affecting my trust.

I installed the update, and after it just said would you like to link your account or something I clicked yes, and was brought straight to my inbox, no need to reenter passwords or anything (seamless). Sounds like his experience was due to Dropbox now supporting business accounts yet.

When Apple releases a new version of iOS or OS X there are always plenty of bugs compared to the previous versions which have had a year to work out all the bugs. Doesn't make me trust them any less.

If a person (like the author) doesn't want the newest product versions they should simply disable auto-update and update manually after a certain amount of time.
