User reviews

Email Notifier is praised for supporting various email services beyond Gmail and being lightweight and easy to use without requiring passwords. Users appreciate instant notifications and quick access to their inboxes. However, multiple reviews highlight issues with unreliable notifications, especially with non-Gmail accounts such as Yahoo Mail and Hotmail. The extension lacks customization options and has persistent notification badge bugs. Some users face compatibility problems, and developer support is limited or unresponsive, leading to unresolved issues.
Pros
  • Supports multiple email providers including Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo Mail, and others, not limited to just Gmail.
  • Simple and easy to use; ready to use immediately after installation without complicated setup.
  • Provides real-time updates and instant notifications for emails, especially reliable with Gmail.
  • Allows users to quickly access their email by clicking on the respective icons to open email inbox in browser.
  • Lightweight and does not require users to provide their email passwords.
Cons
  • Notification issues such as lack of alert sounds and persistent notification badges that do not clear automatically.
  • Does not reliably support some email providers like Yahoo Mail, Hotmail/Outlook, and icloud.com.cn, with some functionalities breaking or stopping over time.
  • Lack of customization options like controlling notification sound volume, and inability to add or remove unwanted email service icons.
  • Some users report compatibility issues with certain Chrome versions or breaking unrelated websites.
  • Developer support is lacking; unaddressed bug reports and no responses to user inquiries.

จุดเด่นอยู่ตรงที่สามารถรับอีเมลได้หลากหลายค่าย ไม่ว่าจะเป็น Hotmail, Yahoomail, และฟรีอีเมล์อื่นๆ ไม่ได้จำกัดเฉพาะแค่ Gmail และไม่ต้องตั้งค่าอะไรพิ่มเติม แค่ติดตั้งส่วนขยายก็พร้อมใช้งานทันที เวลาจะอ่านอีเมลแค่คลิกที่ไอคอนอีเมลที่ต้องการก็เปิดเข้าบราวเซอร์อีเมลนั้นๆ ได้ทันที และยังปรับแต่งเลือกแสดงเฉพาะไอคอนอีเมลที่ใช้เป็นประจำได้ ส่วนที่อยากให้ปรับปรุง เมื่อคลิกเปิดอีเมลแล้ว ยังมีตัวแจ้งเตือนที่แสดงค้างอยุ่ที่อีเมลนั้นๆ ต้องกด Re-Check all Email ซ้ำอีกครั้ง ตัวแจ้เตือนถึงจะถูกเคลียร์ออกไป

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Email Notifier requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
