Simplifying Hey Email’s Imbox

I’ve been waiting on custom domains from Hey to jump on the critically acclaimed email service.

I don’t always agree with Hey’s design aesthetic, but am loving the service like many others.

One example: I don’t want previously read emails cluttering my Imbox (no, that’s not a typo). It’s not obvious, but you can hide previously read emails with their Cover Art feature.

They offer six fun abstract cover art patterns, but I want something cleaner so I made a solid image that matches the screen background so it always looks like one big Imbox.

I did this on the Mac, iPhone, and iPad Hey app.

Here are the hex colors for each device:

• Mac: 27323E

• iPhone/iPad: 1B2834
