The Timeful team has built an impressive system that helps you organize your life by understanding your schedule, habits and needs. You can tell Timeful you want to exercise three times a week or that you need to call the bank by next Tuesday, and their system will make sure you get it done based on an understanding of both your schedule and your priorities.
I hope this will improve the "Snooze Someday" feature in Inbox, I'm not sure how this is supposed to work now.
I was thinking the same, all round their snooze feature misses edge cases often. It's a solid and smart set of defaults, but it could certainly be improved. For one, if I get an email with a schedule (say a train ticket) I have to go to Gmail then add it to the calendar. It'd be way smoother to just snooze until the day mentioned, and they could presumably use the same stuff Gmail uses to extract calendar events to do so.
BTW I think the idea of the current snooze someday is to save it in snooze instead of done without setting a reminder because it's easier to find stuff there. It's lower friction than using a different app but I doubt it'll scale well to many saved things.
Really I just hope Google have a plan to bring these things together, I think the inbox and Google now reminders are linked, but the keep ones aren't? And Gmail makes calendar events instead, it's all a bit messy.
Regarding your last point Gmail reminds me of train/plane/... events through Google now. It does also create Calendar events. My Keep remainders also pop on Google now, although they seem lower priority (?).
