2024-04-15 | Russell Maple | en | Simple extension. Works quite well. | |
2024-03-01 | Robert Conti | en | I echo what Kevin Walsh said. Installs fine, but when you click the button, it opens this URL in a new tab: https://www.cloudhq.net/dashboard/apps/gmail_text_resizer Basically useless in its current state unfortunately. | |
2024-02-16 | Kevin Walsh | en | I installed it and gave it access to GMAIL but it does not work. When I click on it it goes to the extension information screen. | |
2023-04-27 | Zaf Khouri | This is a great little extension and does just what you imagine it should. Until you want to remove it. In Gmail, it is called 'Resize text in Gmail' But in the Chrome Extensions list, it is called 'Email Zoom Text Reader by Cloud HQ' . Once you know that, removal is easy. | ||
