Verliere nicht den Fokus – verstecke einfach deinen Gmail-Posteingang!
Image from store
Description from store
This extension hides your Gmail inbox by default, so you can search your archive or compose messages *without getting distracted*.
Ahhhhhh.
P.S. When you actually want to see your inbox, press "Show Inbox".
### Why would I use this?
If you're into batch processing or the Pomodoro focus technique, this extension will probably make sense to you.
If you're okay being frequently interrupted, or you have a job that obliges you to deal with new email very quickly, this extension probably isn't for you.
### What about my privacy?
The extension requests the minimum permission it requires in order to add the "show / hide" inbox feature to Gmail. The extension does not and never will read your emails or other personal data.
The full terms and privacy policy are available on the extension website:
https://inboxwhenready.org/terms-privacy.html
### Does it work on Inbox by Gmail?
Yes, the extension supports both classic Gmail and Inbox by Gmail.
### Support, feature requests and contributions
Please email [email protected].
### How is this different from the Inbox Pause extension?
The main difference: Inbox When Ready hides your entire inbox by default, while Inbox Pause by Boomerang only hides new incoming mail.

- (2025-01-01) Scott Walker: Wish I had found this about a decade ago!! EXACTLY what I needed - a way to CHOOSE when to look at my inbox, without being baited by that darned little number in parentheses. :-) UPDATE: I just realized that I have been using this tool for over a year now! I recommend it EVERY time I talk about time management with friends and associates! I cannot BELIEVE what a difference it has made in my approach to email. If you're serious about efficiency, install this tool NOW. You can thank me later. :-)

It's SUPER annoying, and this is the only thing i can identify that may do it. I had to change my 5 star to 3 star for now... -- This is such a beautiful add-on, i love it

- (2024-03-01) Andrew Murray: Exactly what I needed. I love how this takes away the clutter and allows you to be more intention while still having access to your inbox. Everyone who uses Gmail, needs this. Works on Google Workspace domains, also. I will review this on my channel: https://www.youtube.com/andrewmurraytv

- (2024-01-31) Jacqueline Pittenger: Love this tool! Cuts way down on compulsive inbox checking. Without interfering with having to get into your email for important things (searching for a message, sending a new one, etc.).

- (2024-01-13) Justine Wu: This was easy to download and did what it promised. The only thing I wish for is the microsoft outlook version, as this is where 99% of my email time is spent for work. Gmail is my home/kids/social email so not the timesucker that Outlook is.
