The Best Free Email Tracker for Gmail: Get Started in a Minute
Mail Track is the best free email tracker for Gmail: read receipts, open counts, and real-time notifications on any Gmail account, for unlimited emails.
You send an email, then wait. Did it land? Was it read, ignored, or buried? Mail Track for Gmail answers that for free, on any Gmail account, with no spreadsheets and no guesswork.
The quick way: add Mail Track to Gmail
Getting started takes about a minute:
- Install Mail Track from the Google Workspace Marketplace.
- Grant access to your Gmail account when prompted.
- Compose and send an email exactly as you normally would.
That is it. Your first email is now tracked, and you will see double check marks the moment it is opened, right inside Gmail.
What you get for free
Mail Track is free for unlimited tracked emails. Every message you send shows you:
- Whether it was read, with a single check mark for sent and double check marks for opened.
- How many times it was opened, and when, down to the timestamp.
- Opens on any device, because tracking follows your email into the Gmail app on mobile.
- Real-time notifications, so you can follow up the second your email is read.
You also choose how you track: a visible tracker that shows recipients you use Mail Track, or an invisible one that stays out of sight. It is GDPR compliant either way.
Why it is the best free tracker
Most “free” trackers cap your emails, hide opens behind a dashboard, or push you to pay before you see anything useful. Mail Track puts read receipts, open counts, exact timestamps, and live notifications directly in your inbox, with no email limit on the free plan.
When you want more, Premium unlocks extra features for $5.99/mo, or $2.99/mo billed yearly. But you never have to upgrade to know whether your emails get read.
Stop sending into the void. Add Mail Track to Gmail and see exactly when your emails land.
