Features & Capabilities

Email This is a Chrome extension designed to simplify saving web articles for later reading by sending clean, ad-free versions directly to your email inbox. Unlike traditional bookmark or "read later" tools like Pocket and Instapaper, Email This does not require any signup or additional app installations. With just one click or a keyboard shortcut, users can save any web page, which is then stripped of ads, distractions, and unnecessary sidebars for a clear and readable experience.

Recent enhancements include the ability to add notes and keywords for better searchability, and to receive PDF snapshots of the saved pages. Users can also save multiple file types like PDFs, DOCX, PPTs, Excel sheets, and images as email attachments. Email This supports right-click saving of links without opening them and works seamlessly on Android and iOS devices via the phone's share feature. Completely free and easy to use, Email This ensures you can access your saved content offline across all your devices anytime.

Is Email This Safe?

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 This requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
