Email This Extension

Found a great article but don’t have time to read it now? Save the web page to your email and read it later.
Email This removes ads, distractions and crufty sidebars from a web page and sends a cleaned-up, readable view of the page to your email inbox. You can then open up your email inbox and read your saved articles whenever you want.

Email This is a simpler alternative to bookmarking and \"read later\" tools like Pocket, Instapaper & Readability. There is no need to signup for a new service or install any additional applications to read your saved bookmarks. You can even access your saved bookmarks offline on your mobile phones and tablets.

Benefits & features

* Save any web page or article with one-click

* Save the current page with a keyboard shortcut

* [NEW] Add notes and keywords to your saved pages. This helps you search for your content faster.

* [NEW] Include PDF snapshot of all web pages

* [NEW] PDF files, images, DOCX, PPTs and Excel sheets will be automatically downloaded and sent as email attachments.

* Right-click and save links without opening them. We will open up that link, extract useful content from it and send you an email with its contents.

* [NEW] From your mobile devices (both Android or iOS) use the share menu and send a link to [email protected]. EmailThis will reply with the contents of that page.

* Automatically adds a bookmarklet that lets you save pages from mobile and tablet devices (Chrome for Android, iPhone, iPad etc).

* Completely free to use.

Keith Riggle (ID: 00000090a1be9742) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 10/07/2024 Don't waste your time trying this extension: it no longer works at all, and its website, emailthis.me, has been sold to a company called Valoora that has nothing to do with sharing websites by email. This extension should be removed from the Store. Don't expect any support from the developer, Bharani Muthukumaraswamy, even if you have his Premium plan. I've been trying to get him to change the email address on my account for months, and his only response was to upgrade me to Premium when I already had Premium! I even tried contacting him on Twitter, to no avail. Oddly, his other website, resumonk.com, allows users to update their accounts directly, but not EmailThis. Obviously it's not a high priority for him.

C S Woodhouse (ID: 00000047d308fa02) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/23/2024 Email This is one of the most useful apps I have ever had. I use it numerous times per day to capture articles both for pleasure reading and forwarding to others as well as for research topics that appear to be useful for my projects but need to be saved for later. I have had no problems. After a few uses, I upgraded to Premium - mostly to support this talented and customer service oriented developer! Update: It is now April 2024. The app did go through a time of not working for me, but as of now it is back to being one of my favorite apps. I like to share articles as well as send them to myself as a PDF to save and/or print. I hope that some of you who have had a bad experience will give it another try. I'm not sure if there is now a free version, but I have found it worth paying for.

allan rudolf (ID: 000000c9fe825448) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 04/08/2024 It was good but it no longer works and despite numerous emails to the publisher nothing happens. It seems it is not supported any longer. And again, it was working fine for a while and now it is not working at all. I sent you a few messages and asked you to fix the problem but so far you have done nothing. This is really a shame because when it works, it is excellent but so often you take days or even weeks For you to fix problems. It is now April 2024 and again this app has stopped working for a few weeks now. I have written the owner of the app many times and I get no reply

Jon Custer-Topai (ID: 000000fb36efe5ea) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 03/23/2024 Oh no, emailthis does not seem to be working anymore! It was working beautifully and then it stopped. I have been using this extension for years and I love it when it works. It would be nice if I could send batches at a time but overall, it has been a game changer. It didn't work for many months but everything seems to be fine now. Thank you for restoring service!

Trinity Interactive (ID: 000000b5d08f2b72) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 03/04/2024 2024 Update: This service is currently defunct. There is a pending alternative you may wish to register for at: https://go2mail.io/thank-you If you wish to try contacting the developer, you can try doing so at: https://twitter.com/bharani91 and/or https://facebook.com/EmailThis.me My review when it worked: Although probably better than most existing alternatives, there is much room for improvement. From certain URLs, when I attempt to email myself a page it grabs the right page title, but the wrong content and/or sometimes doesn't deliver it until a few days later :-| I would also ideally love to have an option to allow sharing articles to others.
