   It's not planned for at the moment but will definitely look into it in the near future. But just in case you use any of these browsers, it works on other chrome-based browsers aside from Chrome: - Brave - Opera - Edge - Opera GX

   The version with the fix has been approved and it's now live. Clicking the sender email should show you all emails sent by the sender now. Let me know if you have any issues. Happy to help!

   Thanks! I used https://screen.studio/ for the showcase videos and for the YouTube video I used a combination of Canva/Eleven Labs + Some manual mouse zooming

   We store stats like "unsubscription count" and "deletion count". Your emails do not need to leave your device for that data.

   I totally understand. Unfortunately, that particular statement was required by Google OAuth verification team to verify InboxPurge. I'll figure out a way to make it clearer. Thank you.

   I already explained in a reply: "All these processes happen on your browser(device). The extension uses the Gmail API locally on your browser to perform all the necessary tasks. Your emails never get sent to any external server."

    The extension lists the mailing lists you're subscribed ordered by the frequency (the amount of emails the sender has sent), does that handle your usecase?

    Thank you! Yes this is the actual working flow. When you click on a sender it should show the emails sent by that sender. Unfortunately, at the moment there's a bug. I'm waiting for a Chrome store review approval for the version w

    I might be misinterpreting your question but I'll try to explain further, hopefully it makes sense: So the way most email cleaning tools work is: - Scan your emails for all your subscriptions - via Gmail API - Each subscription has a

    Tbh I didn't really consider this approach as I didn't think it was possible (that's if it is). Also I'm not so comfortable with hijacking authentication session. I very much prefer making the user actually grant permiss

    It's free for up to 20 mailing list unsubscribes/deletes per month. You only have to pay if you want unlimited access. It's made clear on the landing page. Sorry if 20 was not enough for you.

    Cool! Yes it's pretty similar. There just some minor API differences. e.g Chrome - chrome.tabs.query(queryInfo) Firefox - browser.tabs.query(queryInfo) So you could easily port any firefox extension to chrome and vice-versa using the s

    At the moment the extension's side bar shows mail count per sender, not domain. You can also order from highest to lowest. Does that suffice for you? You're right Gmail does not show the datasize clearly, but to get emails with la

    "Locally" here means, calls to the Gmail API are triggered directly from your browser(device) not on any third-party servers. I totally understand your concern. Unfortunately, to perform those actions(unsubscribe/delete etc..

    Filters only affects new incoming emails. If that's your intention, then that works perfectly. Of course this also means you never want to see a newsletter in your Inbox. In cases where you want to mass delete older emails that you pre
