A view allows you to filter and sort the tickets of your account according to one or more criteria. For example, you can have a view that displays tickets having the tag urgent, or a view that display closed tickets, etc...
Views are not like inboxes because a ticket can be present in 1 or more views if this one matches criterias of these views.
