One click extension that clicks 'unsubscribe' link in emails for you. Just open an email and click the icon to use.
Unsubscribe me Extension
If you ever have struggled to clean your inbox and unsubscribe to mailing lists. This plugin is for you. It's one click to unsubscribe and stop those pesky emails from coming back.
What this is:
This is a free extension and I do not keep or see your data at all, the app runs off a script and just helps you automate the process and save your fingers from the trouble.
Why I made this:
For years I spent so much time scrolling through emails searching for the unsubscribe button. It took so much time and energy.
This plugin was created to help you quickly unsubscribe from mailing lists on Gmail or other email clients.
Currently this plugin has been tested and works on outlook.com emails, and in Gmail email accounts.
Languages supported:
English
Français (French)
한국어 (Korean)
*Updated 1/23/2024
Added functionality to respond to two more email types
How to use:
Just open up the email you want to unsubscribe from, and then click the plugin icon to get you started on unsubscribing.
If it was a success, a new tab should open asking you to confirm your unsubscribe request, or notify you that you've unsubscribed.
If there was an issue, or the email was too long, the email will open up bigger in the same window. At that time just click the unsubscribe icon for this google app, and it should unsubscribe for you in a new window.
If nothing happens after you click unsubscribe (once or twice):
1. It's possible it's a scammy email! This app doesn't support 'image' link unsubscribe requests because clicking those can be really harmful, instead please mark the email as spam and block the sender. Always double check who the email sender if and make sure emails look legit before clicking the unsubscribe icon for this app.
2. It's possible that some words in the email/vocabulary aren't supported by this extension. Feel free to submit a report and it can be considered as a fix for future versions.
3. The mail site might not be supported! File a request for support.
4. There might be another issue! File a request for support with as many details as you can gather.
How you can help!
Please leave a review if you enjoyed it, I love seeing this app get more users, and it makes me feel glad if I helped someone solve a problem in some way. Feel free to share this extension with your friends too.
+++Update Notes
4/10/2023 : Version 0.2 Release:
In this update two major issues were addressed:
1. Dealing with emails that have broken HTML code, and 'look' okay, but the button doesn't work.
2. Dealing with emails that seem to have been created via WIX, that hide under a html element.
In this update, for emails with broken html this solves the issue where when you click the unsubscribe me icon--nothing happens. Now you should see another page open up where you can see the document shown in full HTML format, essentially you get taken to the \"Show HTML Message' link in Gmail. This fix really only works in Gmail. It was coded to reflect the email format of gmail. From there you can click the unsubscribe me button again and get to where you need to be.
