"Built to mislead"
Version: Gmail Notifier 1.0.87
Pros
None at all.
Cons
Not the real Gmail Notifier from Google, but they want you to believe it is.
Summary
This program is designed to mislead. The developers are clearly working really hard to hide the fact that this isn't the Google product that we're looking for, and I'm sure they successfully trick a lot of people into giving them their password.
I'm not sure if they necessary use the password for ill intent, but it's hard to trust developers who work so hard to hide the fact that indeed this is NOT Google software. Had they been honest about it up front, this could have possibly been viewed as a respectable alternative. F minus. -
"Misleading; Not a Google product!"
Version: Gmail Notifier 1.0.87
Pros
No sign anywhere that this is an individual's own product. I had to dig deep into the developer's website, which was hard to find, to figure out the truth, because even the website had prominent Google logos.
Cons
I just don't trust a program like this with my Gmail password, which would basically give him/her full access to my communications and other accounts. There's no sign they do anything with it, but they also make no effort to even admit the issue.
Summary
You may trust it. I don't. Someone who potentially can gain access to all of their users's accounts, email and otherwise, need to be upfront about it. I don't even this this should be on the site, given the extent of developer's efforts to hide the fact that this is an unofficial product at best.
