Gmail - Reply at the TOP Extension

If you are frustrated of scrolling up and down while composing your email replies in Gmail, THIS IS THE EXTENSION YOU NEED!

This will move the reply/compose box from the bottom of the page to the top of the page. You can now see the latest email in the thread as you type, without have to scroll up and down. This is especially loved by Outlook users who are used to the reverse chronological view.

I developed this after I could not find any solution. After using it for a while, I have noticed a significant boost in email productivity ... no more scrolling for those long conversation threads!

NOTE: Refresh/reopen the Gmail tab for the extension to start working.

Paul Andersen (ID: 0000001ab3b029ec) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/02/2023 I've been using this for about 3 years and it works fine as expected

icon

Vic McDonald (ID: 0000003d29c4c686) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 07/31/2023 It works fine when replying to an email; however, replying to a reply (as in when you have an exchange via email) does not work. When I reply to a reply using this extension, the 2nd reply goes to the bottom of the now much longer email.

Danny Passey (ID: 0000004389be02d7) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 07/20/2023 Doesn't work with or without reading pane on. Shame because it's much needed given the glaring oversight from the Google Devs.

John Tekin (ID: 00000050f97fb49d) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 05/15/2023 Does not work

icon

Fiona D'Alessio (ID: 000000d6abbf9ef3) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 02/21/2023 This does not work. It semi-worked for about a week or so, although the reply box WAS at the top of the email, you still had to scroll to get to it, which is pointless. Now it doesn't even do that, as the reply is at the bottom. Would be nice if this could get fixed.
