TouchMail is an email application developed for Microsoft Windows, launched on April 17, 2013 at the DEMO Mobile Conference in San Francisco.[1]
TouchMail was developed by a Seattle-based startup founded in 2012 by former Microsoft employees Matthew Carlson and Alex Frank as an e-mail client designed for touch input. It runs using the Metro-style user interface introduced in Windows 8 and currently functions on both Windows 8.1 and Windows 10.
