Description
PowerSearch searches every mail account you own in a single query — Gmail, Outlook, iCloud, Yahoo, M365, Exchange, standard IMAP — instead of switching apps or searching one inbox at a time. It syncs headers only, never message bodies, entirely on-device, so a tool built to find your email doesn't also become somewhere your email content ends up. Results grouped by sender, filterable by date, with one-tap Flag and Forward. From the team behind MailBroom. 7-day free trial.

Could you build this?
Partial Building an iOS app that connects directly via IMAP and proprietary OAuth flows for Google, Microsoft, and Apple while indexing and searching headers entirely on-device is technically challenging and prone to mail protocol edge cases.
What it would actually take: The app requires a native iOS stack (Swift) embedding low-level IMAP/MIME parsing libraries (e.g., MailCore2 or custom C/Swift implementations) and OAuth token management for Microsoft Graph, Google API, and Apple IMAP. The difficult aspects include managing multi-thread IMAP sync, handling broken standard implementations across legacy mail servers, and building an on-device full-text search index (e.g., SQLite FTS5) that performs smoothly under memory and battery constraints.
