Newton email app gets revived again, as does its expensive price tag
August 06, 2025
The Newton email app has had quite a rocky history. First, it started as CloudMagic and earned rave reviews and a devoted following. CloudMagic then became Newton and went the full premium route, charging quite a lot for what is essentially justa way to check your email.
That premium strategy didn’t work out so well, as a huge swath of users jumped ship to other apps to avoid paying. Shortly after,Newton folded. Then, out of nowhere,Essential came along and bought it up, keeping pretty much everything the same as it had been. Unfortunately,Essential then closed up shop, too, killing off Newton once again.
Today, though, a new team takes over the Newton email app, making it possibly the most resilient app ever. The new team is keeping that premium pricing (ugh) but also promising a swath of new changes that will make Newton better overall and prevent it from going anywhere ever again.
