Get the Chrome extension.
The extension adds tracking to Gmail — it injects an invisible pixel when you hit Send and shows read receipts right in your inbox.
Download the extension
Coming to the Chrome Web Store soon — for now it installs in 30 seconds with the steps below.
Install in 5 steps
- 1Download & unzip
Click the download button above, then double-click the .zip to unzip it. You'll get a folder called “mailviewed-extension”.
- 2Open Chrome extensions
In Chrome, go to chrome://extensions (paste it in the address bar and press Enter).
- 3Turn on Developer mode
Flip the “Developer mode” switch in the top-right corner.
- 4Load it
Click “Load unpacked” and select the unzipped “mailviewed-extension” folder. Mail Viewed appears in your toolbar.
- 5Sign in & send
Pin the extension, then open Gmail and compose — you'll see the “Tracking on” pill. Hit Send and watch opens land on your dashboard.
Note: because the extension isn't on the Chrome Web Store yet, Chrome installs it in “developer” mode — that's normal and safe. Once it's published, you'll be able to add it with one click and updates will be automatic.
