It doesn't work, no matter how many times I uninstall it and re-install it.

Dragan Cicovic 2025-08-22

Works great thank you, but would be even better if the reply compose box opened below the email being replied to, instead of above. Thanks again!

Phillip Bell 2025-08-20

Works. Simple. Just what was needed.

Rodney Lover 2025-08-19

I absolutely prefer how this shows my email! Thank you!

Samuel Leung 2025-08-17

Simple and do the trick perfectly

Cian McGuinness 2025-08-12

Simple extension that does the job perfectly!

Spencer Frame 2025-07-11

So much better than CloudHQ that now charges for the reversal. Perfect replacement

Music Lab Folsom 2025-07-09

Great but just one issue - when I reply to an email, it scrolls to the bottom of the window instead of to the top where I can type and see my reply. So I have to manually scroll up every time. Can this be fixed?

Erin Gold 2025-07-08

Exactly what I needed the extension to do.

Andrew Edmonds 2025-06-23

Great extension. simple, lightweight, works. No account needed.

Roel de Vos 2025-06-17

Ok, until now I used the Cloudhq extension for this, but now they want us to make an account... This one works immediately after install. Really, no fuzz at all.

Traxtion Dispatch 2025-06-05

Does not work all the time

Gold Gold 2025-03-28

This is very useful and adds convenience to the user!

Tom Baverstock 2025-03-21

Would be 5* if it didn't scroll to the bottom of the thread automatically as soon as you hit reply. At the moment it is of limited use.

Arun Agnihotri 2025-03-21

Must have for Gmail!!

Peter Marcellino 2025-02-25

Been using this for years now. Super helpful. Can't believe there is no built in setting for this.

Scott S 2025-02-18

Nice. Exactly what i was looking for!

Jeff Thom 2024-12-18

Works great. Cool that the source code it on gitlab. Hopefully, someone has check it to make sure they aren't reading our emails . . .

Hoss Zahiri 2024-12-11

works great! game changer, how google did not offer this as an option blows my mind

Cy Bolton 2024-11-21

Makes all the difference in the world... but one has to ask WHY Gmail requires an extension to create what should be the default view.

Shakeel Subair 2024-10-11

This simple plugin makes Gmail chats look more like mobile messaging, with the latest messages at the top. Hard to believe Google missed such an obvious feature—crazy! But hey, thanks to this developer for fixing it! Steps: Click 'Add to Chrome' and accept the permissions. Open Gmail, go to Settings > General, and ensure Conversation View is on. Restart Gmail, and you're all set!

Jessamine Pan 2024-10-04

Very shocked why Gmail isn't automatically showing the newest email at top??? why? I never can find content of my client's email, I had to keep rolling down on my phone and still can't find it, it is very hard to do this while on the go with cell phone. It is a bit odd google can have all the innovations but this? thank you for the extension, it is magic!

Kimberley Annear 2024-09-12

A game changer!

Lora Rogers 2024-08-10

Ohh my goodness, it works perfectly and makes me so happy. Thank you for having this tool available it saved my life from additional stress!

Dilli Prasad 2024-07-23

Really It is Awesome .

Jason Bice 2024-07-16

Works perfectly, thank you! I'm a bit surprised google isn't doing this without need of a plugin.

Luke Levin 2024-07-12

It's such a nice surprise to download an extension and have it do exactly what it says it's going to without any extra nonsense or glitches.

Lotem Kaiser 2024-07-11

Have been using it for years and not sure if I could do without it at this point :) Makes so much sense and works perfectly.

Dr. Kenneth Weinberg 2024-07-05

You need a medal for this!!!

Daniel Chan 2024-07-04

It's like discovering a whole new universe with this. Awesomeee!

Jade Meneguel 2024-06-11

thank you for this <3

Sunil Kumar 2024-05-18

Been using this extension for years now without realising how great it is. I used Gmail in another browser, and suddenly realised this extension is missing and using gmail was not smooth after that. This is very simple yet powerful extension to save your time of not scrolling to last conversation.

Shilo Peay 2024-05-17

Best thing ever! Works great! I'm shocked Gmail doesnt have this function built in, but grateful this exists!

Shaun P 2024-05-07

This is an AWESOME extension. Older messages now appear at the bottom of conversations and the sort order is now consistent with the sort order of the message list (ie. top-down newest-to-oldest). I have no issues scrolling when replying (the drafts I edit correctly appear at the top above the message I am replying to). Google's default logic of showing the most recent message in a conversation at the bottom made no sense at all, as it contradicts the idea of "append and indent original message" when replying which places the original, older message at the bottom. This extension finally brings some sanity to the conversation view.

HANAN ELSAYED 2024-05-02

Thank you,

Alexander Dukes 2024-05-02

THANK YOU! I was losing my mind switching between Outlook and Gmail. Google NEEDS to make this an option in Gmail! Until then, this will do! Works perfectly!

Adina Conroy 2024-04-29

Worked perfectly! No idea why this isn't already a feature in gmail. '\_(**)_/'

Kumar H 2024-04-29

such a shame that Google doesn't have this option in mail box and displays thread in illogical manner by default. It works here but how do I get this on gmail app on mobile?

Peter Hawkins 2024-04-24

It's extremely silly that Gmail doesn't offer this option within its normal settings. Until sanity prevails, this works.

Anders Rosenbeck 2024-04-24

Works well and should be standard functionality. One thing I am missing: a reply I make is not taken into consideration in the sorting. The conversation/thread is only sorted on top if I have received a reply. Or I am worng?

Zeb Lang 2024-03-25

No idea why this is not a setting or default view but I am happy it works!

S. Lee Gooding 2024-02-26

Works perfect for me. I have no issues with scroll when replying. The reply section opens directly above the message.

Hannes Hühmer 2024-02-19

The best

Mark Old Account 2024-02-09

Windows scrolls down when I hit reply, so I need to scroll back up again. Please fix this and it's a 5 start extension!

Jeff Kyle 2024-01-31

Great extension! As others have said, lease fix the issue, if possible, where the window scrolls automatically to the bottom of the window after clicking Reply. Typing does automatically scroll it back up to the top where the cursor actually is but having it scroll automatically to the top would make this extension truly outstanding. Thanks!

Badreddine Baim 2024-01-24

As advertised ! Thank you, this is so much better, I dunno why google would refuse to have the order reverse as an option ! it's nauseating to scroll to the bottom of a long chain of email just to see the most recent one

Shauna Romine 2024-01-23

This is dumbfounding to me that this hasn't been discovered or fixed by Google after all this time. It is common sense. Why did this take so long to fix? It's been years. Finally and thank you.

Tomasz Pieta 2024-01-19

It works good although when you hit the "Reply" button then the page scroll and focus goes to the bottom of the page and not to the Top where your cursor is active and ready to type. Probably it's a small fix for the devs but it's super annoying when you use it every day.

Andrew Smith 2024-01-05

Been using for YEARS, I can't believe google still haven't added this feature and we need this plugin! Works great and nerver given me any problems.

Dien Nguyen 2024-01-03

This extension is extremely helpful and productive! Instead of scrolling down to see the latest mail, now I can just take it easy.
