Do you want to be able to see your emails quickly, without having to actually open them?

Now, instead of just reading the subject headline of your emails, Gmail Message Preview lets you preview your emails in 4 different ways. You can preview your inbox emails without actually opening them with the following choice of views:

✔️ 1st line of your email
✔️ First 2 lines of your email
✔️ First 3 lines of your email
✔️ Entirety of your email

This lets you quickly scan your emails without ever even clicking on them.

And Gmail Message Preview by cloudHQ will never trigger "tracking pixels" - we will block *ALL* tracking attempt during previewing an email.

cloudHQ. Helping your productivity, 1 click at a time.

Alison Wojahn 2025-09-15: Used to be a great tool, but now, after years of usage, it is telling me my "free trial" is about to expire. No notice it even was a trial. Be gone, useless one! I don't play games like that. Either be a tool, or be up front that you are a tool for cost!
Kemar Irving 2025-08-07: Such a disgusting sales process not telling you this is a free trial on top of the email preview working when it feels like it.
S1f Sw 2025-07-28: This extension is a real productivity booster. The ability to scan emails without opening them saves me time every day and keeps my inbox organized. I combine this extension with Simplehuman for Gmail, which delivers the advanced features I want from Superhuman but at a much lower price. Both have made my Gmail experience smoother and more efficient.
Rose Foster - PPS 2025-07-14: Beware - they don't tell you that it is actually a "Free Trial" and then want to charge you $5 per month to keep using it.
Cem Aksoy 2024-12-08: Who the - do you think you are showing me ads of your -- little company every time I boot open my gmail inbox? This is just a tool that is supposed to make gmail more useful. Not causing me to do an extra click to start actually using it. I do not care about your ----- little company called CloudHQ. I do not give a single --- about it. THE AUDACITY! Deleted forever. I DO NOT RECOMMEND TO ANYONE.

Jeff Kang 2021-06-07: Great extension! Just a note that a different middle mouse button auto-scroll circle appears when you click it on the “Full Content”, even though the normal auto-scroll circle works if you choose line previews. The AutoScroll Chrome extension allows you to have a finer control of the auto-scroll speed, so you need to click on the gray area outside “Full Content” if you want the regular auto-scroll circle to appear.

Jonas Larsen 2021-01-18: Sorry, but it's too slow if you have a lot of emails. AND It's doesn't seem to support UTF-8, so some non-english characters are displayed like this example: "f�rening".

Chaves Pinto 2020-11-12: As been said already, slows the gmail a bit (lot). Because of that, slows my email readings, choosing, open... Often I open an email that was not the intended one, because this extension is still opening the lines or just thinking. Also dragging emails from one Gmail tab to another is slowed and often the same error occurs, dragging the wrong email. A good idea but not a good performance even if we have a lot of Gmail extensions... :-D

G W 2020-08-08: Fue util pero lo que preciso es que muestre las 1,2o3 lineas solo on mouse over. Lo pueden agregar. El problema comenzo asi. Hay mails que llegan con display:none ! En el codigo html Ejemplo <span= style=3D"font-size:1px; color:#fff; background-color:#fff; display:none !i= mportant">"B=C3=BAscalo en el otro portal de ventas famoso (el de tres letr= as) o bien revisa la segunda foto de esta publicaci=C3=B3n . De eso modo pu= edo aceptarte la oferta, por este medio no ya que el costo por la venta es = alto... Gracias!"</span> En este caso en la vista previa original de gmail. Se ve parte de la respuesta. Y con Gmail Message Preview se ve tambien 2 lineas y 3 lineas segun uno seleccione. Pero Gmail Message Preview en lugar de funcionar solo en modo MOUSE OVER para expandir me esta expandiendo cada mail del listado. DESEARIA CONSERVAR EL LISTADO ORIGINAL DE UNA LINEA DE GMAIL Y QUE Gmail Message Preview SOLO EXPANDA CUANDO PONGO EL MOUSE ENCIMA . ¿Seria esto posible para proxima actualizacion? O como lo puedo lograr con esta ? Ademas si uno pone full preview ya no se ve ese texto. Lo mismo pasa si sin la extension uno quiere ver el mail en gmail en la forma clasica. Gracias
