10 Productivity Gmail Extensions for Your Browser

Gmail is used by 500+ million people but how many of us make the best use of it? Yes, it’s a convenient email client to use but what if I told you that Gmail is capable of way more functions than it offers you at the moment?

The same way applications use plugins is the same way Gmail does, and here are 10 that will boost your productivity.

5. Gmail Offline

As the name suggests,Gmail offline enables you to access your Gmail content when you are offline. You can search for emails as well as read and respond to them as if you were online. They wouldn’t deliver until you’re back online, though. And don’t expect new emails either.

8. Key Rocket

Key Rocket has one function – to make you memorize Gmail shortcuts. And since the journey to being a power user begins with the step of learning keyboard shortcuts, it is a good extension to have.

Each time you perform a task that could have been quickly done using a shortcut Key Rocket will display the shortcut in a minimalist pop-up applet.

10. Just Not Sorry

Just Not Sorry takes on the job of cleaning up your grammar and making it sound more formal. Fillers and phrases like “just” and “I’m no expert” or “I think” weaken your message that’s why Just Not Sorry will underline them with red for you to remove.

If you decide to ignore the suggestion to remove the overused words and phrases your emails will deliver anyway.
