Description from store
Gmail POP Sync is a Chrome extension that enables you to modify the settings in Gmail, allowing your external POP accounts to fetch and synchronize faster than the default rate of once every hour.
With Gmail POP Sync, you can fetch from an unlimited number of POP3 email accounts with a frequency as low as one minute.
If you use Gmail to access emails from other POP3 accounts, the Gmail Fetcher will automatically check each POP3 account at the frequency you select.
You can also utilize the new 'Fetch Now' feature, which allows you to synchronize all your POP accounts with a single click.
We welcome feedback and comments. Please contact us at [email protected] if you encounter any issues.

Latest reviews
- (2024-07-31) Simply Clean Laundry Service: Works great for us. We have 5 pop email accounts that we need "fetched" every minute and this works perfectly. Just upgraded recently and it works great. The price for upgrading is very fair and when I had a question about functionality of the upgrade version, they responded within an hour. Super happy with our decision.
- (2024-05-14) Krzysztof Burdka: extension does what should be standard in Gmail Workspace, but this additional red button is unnecessary and breaks the GMAIL layout, there are alternative plugins that do it better.
- (2024-05-08) Alberto Vaccari: Trash! They made the button huge and with a large red text to scream at you and upgrade. Stay away!
- (2024-03-07) Al Testani: This works well! I had trouble getting going but the support was outstanding.
- (2024-03-07) Guido G: It works. It didn't at first but I wrote to support and they sent a few instructions to fix an issue with my setup.
- (2024-02-15) Brandon Parrish: Great extension. Used this when I needed an Office365 email to sync with POP every minute!
- (2023-11-16) Sergej Spiridonov (SPISER): Please make FIREFOX extension integration ðŸ˜
- (2023-07-16) Geoff Cudd: I have multiple POP accounts, but only need to check one frequently. How do I specify which of my POP accounts should use this extension in the free version? I don't see any settings anywhere.

- (2023-05-26) Alexander C. Gansmeier: I love this extension. Does what it says, I even upgraded to the premium version. And one time I had an issue, the support team delivered truly excellent customer service via email and helped me fix my problem in one day. Two thumbs up!

- (2023-05-04) Jeramy Phillips: Does what it says it does. You do end up with a small button at the top of your Gmail prompting you to upgrade, but it is not intrusive. At the bottom of your Gmail page, there is a message regarding the extension with information, when it last synced the POP account, and when it will again.

- (2022-08-25) Ray Mantle: Purchased the yearly subscription as this product is a life saver! One of my pop3 accounts was only being fetched every hour or so. This is so annoying when using Gmail as your primary email client. Now my pop3 accounts are being checked every 1 min which makes a big difference to me. Thanks!

- (2021-07-28) Ace M: I am not a fan of the unwanted email that it sent to all of my logged in email accounts, i have installed about 30 extensions and 99% of them do not send unsolicited welcome emails telling me to install the extension that i JUST installed I jut got the extension so i dont know how well it works The HUGE ugprade button is also very invasive, other extensions have a tiny button, but this company makes the button 3x the size So far not a great initial impression, ill be looking for another pop3 extension

- (2021-05-05) Damian S: The extension works perfectly. Those complaining that it doesn't work need to remember that the free version checks ONE pop account ONLY.

- (2019-03-25) For years now I have been routing my work email through gmail, simply because I prefer the interface of gmail to that of my domain's email service. I frequently waited on / missed emails that had not yet been synced for up to an hour. I don't know much about the behind the scenes mechanics, but it seemed terribly arbitrary. So, I'd go into settings and manually refresh (Settings --> Accounts & Import --> Check mail from other accounts --> Check mail now). Needless to say, annoying. I don't remember how I found this extension a couple months ago, but I've been extremely happy with it since day one. Thank you!

- (2019-02-15) B. H.: This is a paid extension that immediately collected my email and sent me a message. It offers a free service for one gmail account and will speed up checking a decent amount, but to fully unlock you must pay. I can't begrudge the developer for offering a paid upgrade, but I do begrudge a lack of transparency on their part for not mentioning this anywhere in the description. Further, it didn't offer me an option for whether or not to share my email address with the dev. Who knows what else this extension isn't transparent about. Hopefully it did not harvest my emails and forward those to the developer as well.
