Experience Gmail™ without ads
Focus only on your emails and wipe out the noise added to your inbox by Gmail ads. Gmelius gives you the possibility (i.e. option) to remove all the ads present in Gmail (top, right and bottom). To note that Gmelius does not deactivate the automatic Gmail filtering and scanning system which allows Google to parse for keywords in your emails and then match and serve targeted ads when you browse the Web. For more information about Google ads, please read the Google Privacy section.
Make Gmail™ header auto-expandable
Make the Gmail header, that is the logo and search block, auto-expandable on demand and prioritize so the content of your inbox. If you enable this feature, Gmelius will add a "Search and Share" button in the top navigation bar that will display/hide the header and auto-focus the search input. This feature includes a keyboard shortcut for Chrome users (experimental).
Remove the "People Widget"
You don't use the so-called "People widget" or contact box appearing at the right of your emails? Remove it from Gmail and enjoy a larger space to read and browse your messages. You will need to disable the ads first for this feature to work properly. Fully compatible with the Preview Pane Gmail lab.
Customize Gmail™ navigation icons
The native Gmail navigation icons can look a bit confusing. While you have the possibility to choose either buttons with icons or buttons with text, Gmelius gives you the option to have buttons with icons and text. Moreover, you can also colourize the navigation icons to make them even more intuitive.
Add a subtle row highlight
Make the navigation through your Gmail inbox more eye-pleasing by adding a subtle row highlight when the mouse goes over a message. Gmelius features a row highlight whose colour is customizable in order to suit best your theme. This feature is also compatible with the Preview Pane Gmail lab.
Homogenize the appearance of your incoming emails
Not a big fan of those emails sent with an exotic font (e.g. Comic) and catchy colours? Enable this feature and Gmelius will homogenize the look and feel of your incoming emails based on the default settings of your Gmail theme.
Add attachment Icons
In your Gmail inbox, attachements are indicated by a paperclip. What if different icons were shown depending on the type of file attached to your emails? Gmelius exactly does this by offering type dependent attachment icons, either in colour or in black and white (Chrome only). More than 40 types of files are currently supported from the standard .doc|.pdf|.xls to the less frequent .php|.svg|.ogg.
Disable "Consider including"
Some Gmail users were not happy with the activation by default of the "consider including" feature when composing their emails. You too? Just disable it with Gmelius.
Make the Google logo clickable
Remember the days when one simple click on the Gmail logo in the header was magically refreshing and sending you back to your inbox. Gmelius revives this nice feature.
Auto-Scroll to the top of your inbox à la Google+
Hand cramps scrolling continuously up and down in your Gmail inbox? Relax and enjoy a smooth auto-scroll to top functionality by simply clicking on the top-dark grey bar, like in Google+. Your fingers will say thank you :)
Move emails labels from the left to the right of your inbox
In Gmail, labels are placed at the very left of emails subjects. This has for main consequence to decrease the visibility of the content of your emails. Gmelius gives you the possibility to move labels from the left to the right of your inbox, making then easier to read the subject of your emails at first glance.
Regain some space in your inbox
The new Gmail is great but can sometimes look a bit cluttered. Gmelius gives you the possibility to regain some space and to clean your inbox by removing diverse elements such as chat statuses, chat and footer.
f Privacy
To be clear and to the point, Gmelius will never access, read, store, alter or transmit your personal data. If you're a Chrome user, the "Your tabs and browsing activity" permission comes from the fact that this extension modifies the style and UI of Gmail within your browser and so needs to know whether Gmail is open in one or several of your tabs to apply those changes.
Moreover, Gmelius code meets the latest Content Security Policy (CSP) recommendations, making sure its users can keep browsing the Web safely.
o Updates
Gmelius proposes a software of quality by releasing new features and correcting possible bugs on a constant basis. As a user, it's your responsibilty to ensure that you always run the latest version of the extension.
Updates are announced via Google+, Facebook and Twitter, and it is highly recommended to follow Gmelius on either of these networks to be kept updated.
