Spar­row is an email client for iPhone that takes a dif­fer­ent approach to your inbox than the default/​built-​​in Mail.app from Apple. It’s inspired more by a Twit­ter client and feels very sim­i­lar to using a Twit­ter app if you’ve ever used one.

It’s on sale in the App Store this week — $0.99 on Tues­day and Wednes­day, $1.99 on Thurs­day and back to its reg­u­lar $2.99 on Friday.

I picked it up and am try­ing it out by using all my reg­u­lar email accounts on Mail.app and putting my Lemon Pro­duc­tions account in Spar­row. My think­ing is that way I can check work related stuff when I want to — or ignore it when I need to.

Don’t be like Fran­cis and miss your oppor­tu­nity.

@ichris You mean the app that I bought last week? #doh
