Put it in its place.

Archive conversations you’re done with. Snooze one until you can answer. Pin the people you want to keep close. Make lists of your own.

Bartleby opens the Messages database read-only. Archive, pins, snoozes, and drafts live in Bartleby’s own store. No Bartleby server sees your conversations.
