The email tracker 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.

Add to Chrome, it's free

One click from the Chrome Web Store. Updates arrive automatically.

Or download the .zip to install manually (v0.7.24)
Manual install in 5 steps

Only needed if you downloaded the .zip above. Installing from the Chrome Web Store takes one click and keeps itself updated.

  1. 1
    Download & unzip

    Click the download button above, then double-click the .zip to unzip it. You'll get a folder called “mailviewed-extension-v0.7.24”.

  2. 2
    Open Chrome extensions

    In Chrome, go to chrome://extensions (paste it in the address bar and press Enter).

  3. 3
    Turn on Developer mode

    Flip the “Developer mode” switch in the top-right corner.

  4. 4
    Load it

    Click “Load unpacked” and select the unzipped MailViewed folder. MailViewed appears in your toolbar.

  5. 5
    Sign in to activate

    Open mailviewed.com and sign in with Google — this securely links the extension to your account. Then compose in Gmail: you'll see the “Tracking on” pill. Hit Send and watch opens land on your dashboard.

Note: the manual install is for people who prefer not to use the Chrome Web Store. Chrome loads a manually installed extension in “developer” mode, which is normal and safe, but it won't update by itself. For a one-click install and automatic updates, use the Add to Chrome button above.
