Mail Track for Gmail review
A low-cost Gmail add-on for open counts, timestamps, and alerts—not click or reply tracking.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Mail Track for Gmail adds email-open tracking to messages sent from Gmail. It is aimed at Gmail users—including sales teams, recruiters, freelancers, and businesses—who want to see whether a message was opened without moving to a broader sales engagement product. Read receipts show open counts and timestamps, and push notifications can alert users when an email is opened. The product is available through a Chrome extension or Google Workspace add-on for desktop Gmail, with tracked sending through Gmail apps on iOS and Android.
The free plan includes unlimited tracked emails, read receipts inside Gmail, open counts and timestamps, instant push notifications, and desktop and mobile access. Premium costs $2.99 per month when billed annually, according to the vendor's pricing page. It adds an invisible tracker, full tracking history, daily email reports, and priority support. A Lifetime plan costs $99.99 as a one-time payment and includes lifetime access, no subscription, invisible tracking, full history, and daily reports. The published plans make the free option a fit for basic open visibility; Premium or Lifetime is more relevant when hidden tracking and retained history matter.
Its scope is the main trade-off: Mail Track focuses on Gmail open tracking, not a wider sales workflow. Verified click and reply tracking are unavailable, so it is a poor fit for teams that need to measure link engagement or response activity. Choose it for inexpensive open signals across desktop and mobile Gmail; choose another tool if tracking beyond opens or working across email clients is central to the job.
