2024-09-20 | David | It looks very good. I would like a way, through this extension or another, to convert gmail into the basic html view, the exact same look and exact same minimal functionality, that Google discontinued this year. If there is a way to flip to that mode with the present extension, I don't see it. P.S. Is there a way turn off animated transitions? If I hover over an email header, it pops up slightly, the border turns bold, etc. | |
2024-01-16 | Oliver | I can't really use Gmail without all those imortant upgrades anymore. | |
2024-01-16 | Edward | This is a truly astounding extension! It would be worth the subscription fee for the tracker blocking alone, but all of the UX improvements over default Gmail make Simplify a real gem. I feel so much calmer using Gmail than I did before. Thanks, Michael! | |
2024-01-15 | Alexandre | Fantastic. Couldn't live without it. | |
2022-12-14 | Matt | I'm giving this 1 star and here is way because when I installed this extension, I thought it was free, but it is not since my trial has expired which is stupid this should be free, I would never pay for extension ever and I shouldn't have to. | |
2022-12-12 | Dave | Simplify brings back all the good stuffs from back in the Inbox days and builds upon it with a ton of seriously good features. This is the kind of webmail experience I wish was the default standard for us all. | |
2022-01-30 | David | This is one of the most useful extensions I've ever downloaded! I was just looking for something that gave me the unread messages count in the corner of my browser, but THIS extension is 1,000% more useful. Totally worth the $2 per month. It simplifies the Gmail website to something that looks similar to my email in (much more user-friendly) Outlook at work. | |
2021-10-22 | Yann | Gmail finally looks like an email client ! | |
2021-04-05 | Sean | Yes, yes and yes! This really helps declutter gmail. I use about 6-7 different gmails at once for work. This really helps! Thank you! | |
2021-03-18 | Ryan | If this ever went away I'd be forced to find a new email client. It's that good. |
