- (2024-11-03) Nils Hart: Used it for a few years and then it went to paid without any notice. Looking for a replacement. I emailed the company about this and they just blew me off and never replied. I will never use this company for anything ever again.
- (2023-03-31) Jeannine Earp: Reliable and user-friendly extension with years of experience in email management, simplifying the process of adding and managing notes within Gmail for increased productivity and streamlined communication. 5 stars.
- (2023-03-26) Peter Greer: Good extension to create and attach notes to Gmail conversations for easy reference and collaboration, enhancing communication and productivity. 5/5 for me.
- (2023-03-19) Virgil Patterson: Quite a useful add-on for adding notes and comments to emails, but it would be even better if it had a feature to search for notes across multiple emails. Overall, I recommend this extension.
- (2023-02-24) Simon Yoda: Gmail Notes is an excellent tool that allowed ume to add notes to their Gmail emails, making it easier to track important information or reminders. With its user-friendly interface, I can easily create, edit, and delete notes directly within their Gmail inbox. Additionally, the tool's ability to synchronize notes across devices ensures that important information is accessible anytime, anywhere. Overall, Gmail Notes is a useful and efficient tool that can help people stay organized and on top of their email communication.
- (2022-10-21) Sales Section 22 LLC: PERMANENTLY DELETING/CORRUPTING EMAILS, AVOID FOR NOW, SENT MESSAGE TO SUPPORT.
- (2022-08-25) Alan Dizdar: Excellent extension. I like it because it actually embeds notes inside the email.
- (2022-08-25) Dayton Livingston: Initially caused browser to crash, over and over again, until I managed to close the Gmail tab. Then I could get in and disable it. When I finally got it working, I found that the "Inline Notes" part doesn't seem to work. The "box" doesn't pop up when I highlight. Also, this adds adds a label to notes that's completely uninformative. Overall, I find "Simple Gmail Notes" to be superior in several ways, including colorization and being able to see the beginning of the note in the Message List. So using colors and emoji symbols, my "Messages List" can give me at-a-glance information about the status of the email/project, as well as some additional information WITHOUT having to actually click on the email to see the whole note. It also includes a "Notes Viewer" and Search, which is incredibly handy for finding notes I've made previously. I like some CloudHQ products overall though, so I'll probably try this again down the road a bit, when it's had some more development. Meanwhile, it's "Simple Gmail Notes" for me!

- (2022-02-06) Boris Joffe: CloudHQ normally has great extensions, but this one is completely broken. I tried adding an inline note and it went into this crazy infinite loop opening up other emails including my drafts (which was kind of scary because it looked like it was going to send an email to a completely different person). I had to close the tab and open a new one. The note was saved, but I can't add another note or remove the first note without this crazy refresh infinite loop happening. I tried clearing the cache but this still happened. I have cloudhq Gmail Copilot extension enabled as well - I don't really want to keep testing / debugging this any further, because I don't want part of one email to accidentally get sent to a different person (which is what it looks like is about to happen during the infinite loop).
- (2021-12-07) Robert Bates: Love the idea, but needs the function that the notes will not be shared with other accounts by default. For example, if you add a note to an email in chrome, but then respond to that email using Apple Mail or mail from your phone, etc. Then the note goes with the email and the recipient can see the note. So, say for example, you get an email offering $5,000 for a piece of property and you add a note "Respond at $3,000, client wants $4,000." Later, you send a reply using your Apple Mail or your phone, etc., then that note now goes to the recipient of the email and you really may be in some hot water.
- (2021-09-22) Chaves Pinto: This has begun not as an answer to Sean McAlister, but it's on the same line. 1. It really slows a little. I add an inline note and received a lot of jumping screens while updating. Could not continue annotating or just reading the email until it stops. Not need to refresh Gmail nor 10 seconds to save. Just one or two seconds. Very usable. 2. And I also expected something like annotating a pdf file or Excel cell's notes. Any kind of popup or similar thing. Have my annotations across my email received text as sent by the sender was not very pleasant even with different background colors. It's hard to know where my notes ended ant the sender's text begin. 3. The biggest issue to me was deleting a note. Clicking the blue cross just let me edit the note. Now I must say. **Great support service. Thanks Pauline**. In less than 24 hours they answered me and my issue was solved just like 1-2-3 done. CloudHQ gives us very good Gmail extensions, but sadly this one did not meet my needs, but it is a very good way to add notes to Gmail for all those whose purposes fit the extension.
- (2021-09-10) Denis S: Can't be used in french because of accented characters not supported.
- (2021-08-25) Lisa Hammond: Doesn't work. It won't save the note inside the email, just creates the window and sits there.
- (2020-12-10) Сергей Воронков: Приложение нужное, полезное. НО! - запись примечания происходит долго и с перезагрузкой письма 2-3 раза - зачастую после записи сообщения появляется другое письмо - несколько раз текст письма полностью терял форматирование - всё сливалось в один абзац сплошного текста - столкнулся с тем, что после записи сообщения текст письма вообще исчезал! Пользоваться практически невозможно.
- (2020-08-05) Md Azher: This extension worked for me for one week, after that its not working. When i type a note and save it then the note disappears automatically on refresh.
- (2020-08-04) Alan Harris: A good idea but I don't like that the notes are at the top of an email and lose any WORD formatting applied. I am not getting the option to include or not in forwarded emails and saved notes do not show up when I try to forward an email to a third party.
- (2019-12-06) Giovani Suhari: It should be 5 star when this bug is fixed: when undo send then the email draft is gone. when scheduled sending is canceled, the draft is not back to editor, cannot edit it, unless refresh the page or exit to the mail inbox then back to draft it can be edited.
- (2019-11-11) gemini 6273: works great. 5 stars
- (2019-11-11) VT Duncan: love this service. quickly just add inline notes and voila. organized.
- (2019-11-10) Drea Johnson: Nice to have for taking any notes on important emails. Must have fixed whatever bugs were getting people, because I've had no issues
- (2019-10-24) Rodrigo Damazio Bovendorp: Doesn't work for me - nothing shows up on gmail even after installing the extension. Console shows some errors.
- (2019-08-12) Suzanne Lyon: App didn't work for me. Needed to refresh browser to get it save or edit a note. I like other HQ Apps but this one wasn't reliable.
- (2019-08-04) Meghan Tulaney: I actually found out about this because of a friend. I tossed out an email to her because I wanted to make sure I was conveying myself correctly and had the right tone. She sent it back with the notes before I *actually* sent it to the real recipient. Really helpful for me.
- (2019-08-03) Jocelyn McCue: Having all the notes in the email itself makes sure all those thoughts don’t get flushed out somewhere that I forget to check on them, you know, like my phone.
- (2019-07-24) Ruby Marandos: Works perfectly! It's a great way to give feedback to my assistant, and it also helps remind me of questions to ask my clients (I'm in real estate).
- (2019-07-04) chad tunis: doesn't work
- (2019-03-01) Eunji M: I was looking for any tool to help me link two different emails (not email accounts) so that I could organize important relevant emails in a linked way, and this just right for me. I'm using it together with "Gmail email link" extension and they perfectly work together to solve my problems. Thanks a million!!!!!
- (2018-12-11) Julia Genenbacher: This is a great tool that helps me organize and and all of my emails.
- (2018-12-11) Daniel Vranjes: I use sticky notes all the time. Why not in my email? Love it
- (2018-12-11) Elliott Dubois: I love this because It puts all my notes together for my emails, with my actual emails. No app to remind me about a certain email from this day, at this hour etc.
- (2018-11-27) Sean McAlister: Very slow - constantly having to hard refresh gmail. Each inline note takes a 10 seconds to save, which stops my ability to continue annotating for that duration. Even some times the page crashes entirely. No other gmail extensions are installed, I've tried emptying my chrome images and files cache and didn't help.
