Dom Leca, the CEO of the Sparrow email client announced that the company has been acquired by Google. and are popular email clients on Apple’s mobile and desktop platforms.

The application will continue being available to current iOS and Mac OS users along with support, but there unfortunately won't be any new features added. Instead the Google GMail users will get the opportunity to benefit from the sleek design of Sparrow.



The acquisition is reported to have cost Google close to $25 million, which includes relocating the Paris based Sparrow team to Google in Mountain View.

So while the Apple community bids adieu to one of their favorite mail clients, the Google Android community can get set to receive Sparrow’s expertise in their products.
